Bath resealing in Long Sutton, done in place

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Common call-outs are for missing sealant behind the taps and black spots in the silicone, on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and baths.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

What affects the price in Long Sutton

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

When we would advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A flexing bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Long Sutton

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

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

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access

Choosing a repair company

Why it’s worth resealing in Long Sutton

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
