Landlords, agents and businesses in Keysoe Row

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Bath resealing at your home in Keysoe Row

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Our repair technicians work on baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about unsealed corners and water getting behind the bath or tray.

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

FAQs for Keysoe Row

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time, normally around a day.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Honest limits

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

  • Hidden water damage
  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Keysoe Row

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

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. 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.

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

How we price bath resealing

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

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

Common problems we fix in Keysoe Row

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Look out for these signs:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Damp near the bath
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting 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 will come back to you with a fixed figure.
