Bath resealing in Knockholt Pound

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Bath resealing at your home in Knockholt Pound

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Common call-outs are for an untidy old seal and damp near the bath, across kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and wet rooms.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Movement in the bath or tray

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Prices and what affects them

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

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

FAQs for Knockholt Pound

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  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, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
