Book bath resealing in Hollywater

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

About our bath resealing in Hollywater

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. We work on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are stained silicone and an untidy old seal.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What bath resealing costs

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Landlord and trade work in Hollywater

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hollywater as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

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

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

FAQs for Hollywater

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

What areas do you cover?

All of Hampshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens after I send photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Materials we work on in Hollywater

  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Baths

The process

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
