Need bath resealing in Maiden Head?

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

About our bath resealing in Maiden Head

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We are frequently asked to fix damp near the bath and black mould in the sealant, in wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hollow or loose tiles

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Questions from Maiden Head

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across North Somerset.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How long before I can shower?

Usually after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. 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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

When to call us in Maiden Head

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Leaks at the edges
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

Questions to ask before you book

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How to care for the finish

10 questions to ask before booking

The process

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

There is 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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
