Bath resealing in Lea Marston

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One visit for most repairs

Bath resealing at your home in Lea Marston

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. If you’re dealing with water getting behind the bath or tray and stained silicone, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes about two hours for a bath. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Your questions about bath resealing in Lea Marston

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Can new silicone go over old?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Birmingham. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

When to call us in Lea Marston

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • An untidy old seal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Sealant that is split or lifting

  • How soon you can use it again

10 questions to ask before you book

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean 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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
