Trusted bath resealing in Lymington

Bath resealing at your home in Lymington

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for gaps in the seal and silicone smeared on tiles, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and wet rooms.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a couple of hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower

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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lymington

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

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.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A flexing bath
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Lymington

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Damp near the bath
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
