About our bath resealing in Langton Herring

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. If you’re dealing with stained silicone and a messy previous reseal, we can help, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and baths alike.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Common questions in Langton Herring

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Do you come to Langton Herring?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

How long before I can shower?

We will give you the curing time.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Air the room after use
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

The process

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow around two hours. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in 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.

What a repair cannot fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A flexing bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

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

Materials we work on in Langton Herring

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

Signs you need bath resealing in Langton Herring

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

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Leaks at the edges

Questions to ask before booking

  • What preparation is included
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Who turns up on the day

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • The type of damage

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
