Bath resealing in Little Horsted, done in place

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Typical jobs include old sealant that looks dirty and gaps by the taps, across basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures.

For a rural address like Little Horsted, tell us about access and parking, and we will plan the visit around it.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Movement in the bath or tray

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

Materials we repair

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

Signs you need bath resealing in Little Horsted

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

People normally call us when they notice one of these:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • An untidy old seal

Rented homes near Uckfield station (about 1.3 miles north) change hands frequently, and repairing baths and showers between tenants is quicker than replacing them.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again. Somewhere as small as Little Horsted, access is typically the main thing to plan. Once we’re there, the bath resealing works exactly as anywhere else.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Dry the seal after bathing

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

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

What affects the price in Little Horsted

Quotes cost nothing and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
