Bath resealing in Hook Green

Your questions about bath resealing in Hook Green

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Hook Green?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What do you need from me?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Bath resealing at your home in Hook Green

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you’re dealing with old sealant that looks dirty and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can usually put it right.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a couple of hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Related advice

Do you need bath resealing in Hook Green?

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How the colour is matched

10 questions to ask before booking

Repairs by material

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

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

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Air the room after use

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

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

What a repair can’t fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hidden water damage
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hook Green

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

How we price bath resealing

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

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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.
