Bath resealing for Hood Green homes

How we handle bath resealing in Hood Green

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. We’re often asked to fix discoloured, yellow sealant and gaps by the taps, in kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

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

When to call us in Hood Green

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

The things customers normally mention when they call include:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Unsealed corners
  • Damp near the bath
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hood Green as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

For anyone letting property in or around Hood Green, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Hood Green, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common questions in Hood Green

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

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

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How we price bath resealing

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

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.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Air the room after use

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

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
