Bath resealing in Holy Corner, done in place

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units, and people most frequently call us about missing sealant behind the taps and black spots in the silicone.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Do you need bath resealing in Holy Corner?

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • An untidy old seal
  • Unsealed corners
  • Black spots in the silicone

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What preparation is included

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Questions from Holy Corner

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How long will it take?

A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Why it’s worth resealing in Holy Corner

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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

How to care for the repair

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

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
