Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Bath resealing in Langley Common without replacing anything

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Common call-outs are for water getting behind the bath or tray and old sealant that looks dirty, across wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.

Common problems we fix in Langley Common

Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Gaps in the seal
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Leaks at the edges

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who will actually do the work

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How we price bath resealing

You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Your questions about bath resealing in Langley Common

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

What does bath resealing cost?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do you work in Langley Common?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Langley Common. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hidden water damage

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally around 24 hours.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

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