Bath resealing at your home in Longhill

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. We work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are leaks at the edges and gaps by the taps.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Longhill

For anyone letting property in or around Longhill, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take around two hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Longhill. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A flexing bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Longhill

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

When to call us in Longhill

In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

The things customers usually mention when they call are:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • An untidy old seal
  • Black spots in the silicone

Before booking anyone

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Aftercare advice
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Shower trays

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