Bath resealing near Lover

Bath resealing in Lover, done in place

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. We’re frequently asked to fix sealant that’s split or lifting and unsealed corners, on baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Lover, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lover use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Lover questions

When can you do it?

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

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Do you come to Lover?

We do. Technicians travel to Lover from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Honest limits

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Movement in the bath or tray

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

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Do you need bath resealing in Lover?

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Unsealed corners
  • Mould you cannot clean out

What to look for in a quote

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the colour is matched
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the price covers travel

10 questions to ask before you book

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

Why it’s worth resealing in Lover

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: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
