Bath resealing near Maidenhall

Bath resealing at your home in Maidenhall

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. We’re often asked to fix damp near the bath and black spots in the silicone, in baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.

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

Common problems we fix in Maidenhall

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

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Black spots in the silicone

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a couple of hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the area is dry

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Let steam out after showers

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

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

Maidenhall: your questions answered

How long does silicone take to cure?

Typically after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LU4 postcode.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do you cover Maidenhall?

We do. Technicians travel to Maidenhall from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
