Bath resealing near Little Marlow

Little Marlow questions

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Little Marlow included. There is no extra charge for travel.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Bath resealing at your home in Little Marlow

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Common call-outs are for stained silicone and missing sealant behind the taps, in kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we’re called out for in Little Marlow

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Stained silicone
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • A messy previous reseal

How to compare quotes

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

What we cannot put right

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

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A flexing bath

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

Materials we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What bath resealing costs

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • A photo taken from further back

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures 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 price without visiting.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
