Bath resealing in Kings Sutton

Signs you need bath resealing in Kings Sutton

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Unsealed corners

What to look for in a quote

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Our hiring checklist

Bath resealing at your home in Kings Sutton

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Common call-outs are for silicone smeared on tiles and mould you can’t clean out, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we can’t do:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

There’s no area surcharge for Kings Sutton. What changes the price is:

  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

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 come back to you with a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Keep the joints dry

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a couple of hours. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint 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.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
