Trusted bath resealing in Heath End

Bath resealing in Heath End, done in place

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Our repair technicians work on baths, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are sealant that’s split or lifting and stained silicone.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hertfordshire.

What we’re called out for in Heath End

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

Look out for any of the following:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Before booking anyone

  • When it can be used again
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How your room will be protected
  • What preparation is included

Our hiring checklist

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

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

Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Common questions in Heath End

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

How long does resealing take?

Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you cover the entire of Hertfordshire?

We cover the entire UK, including Heath End and the rest of Hertfordshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
