How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Bath resealing in Lower Hazel without replacing anything

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for gaps by the taps and an untidy old seal, across wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and baths.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Do you need bath resealing in Lower Hazel?

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

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Unsealed corners
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Black mould in the sealant

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Dry the seal after bathing

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

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

What bath resealing costs

We do not charge extra for travel to Lower Hazel. The price comes down to:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A flexing bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

Lower Hazel questions

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you come to Lower Hazel?

We do. Technicians travel to Lower Hazel from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

How much does bath resealing cost in Lower Hazel?

We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

How long does a reseal take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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