Bath resealing at your home in Kimbolton

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Typical jobs include silicone coming away from the tiles and water getting behind the bath or tray, across baths, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Keep the joints dry

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow around two hours. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

How we price bath resealing

You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Why reseal now?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Do you need bath resealing in Kimbolton?

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Unsealed corners

Before booking anyone

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
