Bath resealing near Horton

How we handle bath resealing in Horton

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. Common call-outs are for silicone coming away from the tiles and a messy previous reseal, on baths, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

10 questions to ask before booking

Prices and what affects them

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Horton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For a price in Horton, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

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, with the joint fully dried first.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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

What we can’t put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Air the room after use
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
