Bath resealing at your home in Luzley

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We work on wet rooms, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are water getting behind the bath or tray and old sealant that looks dirty.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a couple of hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it 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. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

When to call us in Luzley

Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

Questions to ask before booking

  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

Prices and what affects them

You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Luzley

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Repairs by material

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Luzley questions

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
