Trusted bath resealing in Howt Green

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

Bath resealing in Howt Green, done in place

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Typical jobs include missing sealant behind the taps and stained silicone, across wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Why it’s worth resealing in Howt Green

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Open a window after bathing

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we cannot put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

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

Materials we repair

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

When to call us in Howt Green

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Unsealed corners
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
