Book bath resealing in Little London

Why reseal now?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Everything repaired in place
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Bath resealing at your home in Little London

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Common call-outs are for gaps by the taps and black mould in the sealant, in wet rooms, basins & vanity units and baths.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

FAQs for Little London

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can new silicone go over old?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

How long does a reseal take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Little London

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

How we price bath resealing

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

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

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A flexing bath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

Common problems we fix in Little London

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

The things clients typically mention when they call are:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

What your quote should include

  • How soon you can use it again
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
