Bath resealing in Jericho without replacing anything

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Typical jobs include missing sealant behind the taps and old sealant that looks dirty, across basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Questions from Jericho

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Jericho and the rest of Oxfordshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do you come to Jericho?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Jericho for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

How long before I can shower?

You will get the curing time from us.

Signs you need bath resealing in Jericho

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Stained silicone
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Damp near the bath

Comparing quotes

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlords, agents and businesses in Jericho

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Oxfordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Why it’s worth resealing in Jericho

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why Jericho customers choose us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We leave the room as we found it

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.

What affects the price in Jericho

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

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash

A quote takes minutes to ask for: 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.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A flexing bath
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Jericho

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

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

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

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
