Bath resealing in Holloway

Bath resealing in Holloway without replacing anything

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and people most often call us about old sealant that looks dirty and missing sealant behind the taps.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Holloway as everywhere else we work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Holloway use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Questions from Holloway

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your N7 postcode.

How do I book?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Do you need bath resealing in Holloway?

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • A messy previous reseal

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Who will actually do the work
  • When it can be used again

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

How we price bath resealing

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

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
