When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

About our bath resealing in Kingsford

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We work on basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are leaks at the edges and discoloured, yellow sealant.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

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

Questions from Kingsford

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

How long before I can shower?

You’ll get the curing time from us.

Do you come to Kingsford?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Kingsford. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Kingsford?

We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your DY11 postcode.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the area is dry

How to get a price

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kingsford as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Signs you need bath resealing in Kingsford

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Damp near the bath
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Stained silicone
  • Gaps in the seal

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, generally around 24 hours.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
