Bath resealing in Lavendon

How we handle bath resealing in Lavendon

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Our repair technicians work on basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are stained silicone and damp near the bath.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

How we price bath resealing

We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Lavendon questions

How do I stop mould in sealant?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Lavendon included. Travel is included in the price.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Repairs by material

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

What we cannot put right

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

  • A flexing bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Resealing in Lavendon: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Lavendon customers choose us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Take a look at our prices page.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Milton Keynes and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When to call us in Lavendon

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Damp near the bath
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Unsealed corners

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How changes to the job are handled
