Trusted bath resealing in Hew Green

How we handle bath resealing in Hew Green

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We work on basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are gaps by the taps and black mould in the sealant.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How we price bath resealing

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, and the work is guaranteed.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hew Green

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hew Green as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Do you need bath resealing in Hew Green?

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

Questions to ask before booking

  • When it can be used again

FAQs for Hew Green

What happens after I send pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Generally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

What do you need from me?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Is resealing worth it?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Air the room after use
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, tidy-up included.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Make sure the area is dry

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
