About our bath resealing in Letcombe Bassett

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Typical jobs include damp near the bath and black mould in the sealant, in wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Air the room after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

FAQs for Letcombe Bassett

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Oxfordshire.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Do I need to be at home?

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

How long does resealing take?

Typically a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Baths
  • Wet rooms
  • Basins & vanity units
