Bath resealing near Lydmarsh

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What bath resealing costs

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

  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

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.

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for 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 will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Common questions in Lydmarsh

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Lydmarsh and the rest of Somerset. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

How much does bath resealing cost in Lydmarsh?

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

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Signs you need bath resealing in Lydmarsh

In time, even good sealant discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

The things clients typically mention when they call are:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Damp near the bath

Comparing quotes

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Aftercare advice
  • What prep work is covered
  • How your room will be protected

Why it’s worth resealing in Lydmarsh

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
