Bath resealing for High Cogges homes

Bath resealing at your home in High Cogges

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. If you’re dealing with black spots in the silicone and old sealant that looks dirty, we can normally put it right.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

High Cogges: your questions answered

How long does a reseal take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for High Cogges. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Resealing in High Cogges: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes around two hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can price the job.

Common problems we fix in High Cogges

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

Comparing quotes

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Choosing a repair company

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Landlords, agents and businesses in High Cogges

For anyone letting property in or around High Cogges, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
