Bath resealing in Hillington

About our bath resealing in Hillington

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We’re frequently asked to fix unsealed corners and mould you can’t clean out, across baths, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Your questions about bath resealing in Hillington

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What areas do you cover?

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

Do you cover Hillington?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Hillington and the rest of Norfolk. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How long does a reseal take?

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

Prices and what affects them

There’s no charge for travel to Hillington. The price comes down to:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Any details about the material

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Hidden water damage
  • A flexing bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes around two hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  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, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Do you need bath resealing in Hillington?

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Gaps by the taps
  • An untidy old seal

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Air the room after use
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
