Bath resealing for Headley Down homes

Bath resealing in Headley Down without replacing anything

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. Common call-outs are for silicone smeared on tiles and old sealant that looks dirty, in baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Prices and what affects them

We don’t charge extra for travel to Headley Down. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash

If you’re in Headley Down and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Use the extractor fan

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

What we work on
