Bath resealing near Hawkeridge

Bath resealing in Hawkeridge, done in place

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s silicone coming away from the tiles and a messy previous reseal, we can normally put it right.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Questions from Hawkeridge

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you quote from pictures?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Hawkeridge.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for around two hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Landlord and trade work in Hawkeridge

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

When a repair is not the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Hidden water damage
  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Hawkeridge

  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Baths

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Prices and what affects them

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Signs you need bath resealing in Hawkeridge

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • An untidy old seal
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Damp near the bath

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
