Bath resealing in Littlemore, done in place

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair baths, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are black spots in the silicone and old sealant that looks dirty.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Littlemore as everywhere else we work.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

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

What affects the price in Littlemore

You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Littlemore. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Details of any past repairs

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Common questions in Littlemore

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Littlemore.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Normally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One price list for the whole UK

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Keep bottles off the joints

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

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

For anyone letting property in or around Littlemore, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

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

How the visit works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting 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 price the job without visiting.
