Bath resealing in Lowford without replacing anything

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We regularly repair baths, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are a messy previous reseal and silicone coming away from the tiles.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lowford

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Hampshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Use the extractor fan

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

What affects the price in Lowford

You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Lowford, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  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

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A flexing bath
  • Hidden water damage
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Lowford

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

What we’re called out for in Lowford

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

The things clients usually mention when they call include:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Unsealed corners
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

Comparing quotes

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the colour is matched
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Your questions about bath resealing in Lowford

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

What does bath resealing cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

Do you work in Lowford?

We do. We send a technician to Lowford for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

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