  • Movement in the bath or tray

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Bath resealing in Hunton without replacing anything

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, plus curing time. We work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are water getting behind the bath or tray and discoloured, yellow sealant.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Questions from Hunton

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Hunton. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How long before I can shower?

Normally after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hunton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes around two hours.

  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. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Run 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’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Do you need bath resealing in Hunton?

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

People generally call us when they notice something like this:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Leaks at the edges

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

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