Trusted bath resealing in Headley

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

About our bath resealing in Headley

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Common call-outs are for gaps by the taps and discoloured, yellow sealant, on baths, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

10 questions to ask before you book

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hollow or loose tiles

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

Materials we repair

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

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Headley. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Headley clients choose us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • A fixed quote before you book

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Surrey and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Prices and what affects them

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A few things move the price: 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.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Shower trays

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

FAQs for Headley

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Is there any odour?

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