Bath resealing near Little Barrington

How we price bath resealing

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work

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

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your OX18 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

How we handle bath resealing in Little Barrington

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s discoloured, yellow sealant and black spots in the silicone, we can generally put it right, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and wet rooms alike.

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Little Barrington

For anyone letting property in or around Little Barrington, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

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.

Why reseal now?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Related advice

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Use the extractor fan

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

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
