Bath resealing for Littleworth homes

Bath resealing in Littleworth without replacing anything

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. We are frequently asked to fix water getting behind the bath or tray and black mould in the sealant, in wet rooms, baths and shower trays & enclosures.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Baths
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Wet rooms

Littleworth: your questions answered

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can new silicone go over old?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  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

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

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

What affects the price in Littleworth

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

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach

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 price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Do you need bath resealing in Littleworth?

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

Common reasons people in Littleworth contact us are:

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How the colour is matched
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

Is resealing worth it?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
