Bath resealing near Lawford

Bath resealing at your home in Lawford

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Whether it’s water getting behind the bath or tray and stained silicone, we can help, on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Prices and what affects them

There is no charge for travel to Lawford. The price comes down to:

  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Lawford, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Air the room after use
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

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

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

For landlords and businesses

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

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes around two hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. Baths are filled 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

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

Lawford: your questions answered

How long will it take?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

What areas do you cover?

All of Somerset, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you cover Lawford?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Lawford. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Is resealing worth it?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
