Bath resealing at your home in High Barnet

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. Common call-outs are for an untidy old seal and old sealant that looks dirty, across kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and baths.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

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

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Signs you need bath resealing in High Barnet

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

People generally call us after spotting one of these:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Leaks at the edges

10 questions to ask before you book

Why it’s worth resealing in High Barnet

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Take a look at our prices page.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in High Barnet

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around High Barnet, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

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

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Questions from High Barnet

Can you quote from pictures?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes High Barnet. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take around two hours.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
