Bath resealing in Holland-on-Sea without replacing anything

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include sealant that’s split or lifting and mould you can’t clean out, across basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow about two hours for a bath, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

Why it’s worth resealing in Holland-on-Sea

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Everything repaired in place

Questions from Holland-on-Sea

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is my repair covered?

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

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Normally because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Holland-on-Sea, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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.

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Air the room after use

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Do you need bath resealing in Holland-on-Sea?

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Damp near the bath

10 questions to ask before you book

Honest limits

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

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A flexing bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CO15 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
