Bath resealing in Holford

How we handle bath resealing in Holford

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you are dealing with black spots in the silicone and gaps in the seal, we can help, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Holford and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

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

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What affects the price in Holford

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A photo taken from further back

If you’re in Holford and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Let steam out after showers

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

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Holford. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Holford questions

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Holford and the rest of Somerset. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We dry the joint 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, taps included.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
