Book bath resealing in Haywood

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Bath resealing in Haywood without replacing anything

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include gaps in the seal and leaks at the edges, in baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes around two hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Prices and what affects them

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your DN6 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A flexing bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairs by material

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Signs you need bath resealing in Haywood

Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Damp near the bath
  • An untidy old seal
  • Sealant that is split or lifting

Before you book anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How the colour is matched
  • Who will actually do the work

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

See our pricing.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
