Bath resealing at your home in Latchford

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they keep water out. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are old sealant that looks dirty and leaks at the edges.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Latchford questions

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Landlord and trade work in Latchford

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash

For a price in Latchford, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Why it’s worth resealing in Latchford

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Latchford. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One price list for the whole UK

When to call us in Latchford

Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Black mould in the sealant

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What preparation is included
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

How to compare quotes

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
