A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A flexing bath

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Bath resealing at your home in Leigh Sinton

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We work on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are black mould in the sealant and leaks at the edges.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Leigh Sinton and across Herefordshire.

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

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

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Take a look at our pricing.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Leigh Sinton questions

Do you come to Leigh Sinton?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Leigh Sinton. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you need bath resealing in Leigh Sinton?

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • An untidy old seal
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Damp near the bath

How to compare quotes

What bath resealing costs

You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Leigh Sinton, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a couple of 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. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
