Bath resealing near Kingsdon

Bath resealing at your home in Kingsdon

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s a messy previous reseal and stained silicone, we can help, whatever the material.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Questions from Kingsdon

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you come to Kingsdon?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Kingsdon for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Do the materials smell?

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

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Why it’s worth resealing in Kingsdon

Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A flexing bath

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Somerset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

When to call us in Kingsdon

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Common reasons people in Kingsdon contact us include:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

Choosing a repair company

How we price bath resealing

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

How it works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Get a quote

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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