Bath resealing in Kilvington

FAQs for Kilvington

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you cover Kilvington?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Kilvington. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

What does bath resealing cost?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How we handle bath resealing in Kilvington

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Whether it’s a messy previous reseal and missing sealant behind the taps, we can help.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Kilvington

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

How we price bath resealing

There is no charge for travel to Kilvington. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kilvington

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kilvington use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

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

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