Bath resealing for Malting Green homes

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

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

About our bath resealing in Malting Green

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and people most frequently call us about discoloured, yellow sealant and missing sealant behind the taps.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Resealing in Malting Green: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Malting Green. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Malting Green clients choose us

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One visit for most repairs

How we price bath resealing

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Signs you need bath resealing in Malting Green

Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Leaks at the edges

What to look for in a quote

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • If travel is included in the price

How to compare quotes

Malting Green: your questions answered

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How much does bath resealing cost in Malting Green?

Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CO2 postcode.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you charge for travel?

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

How long will it take?

A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

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

What we work on

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

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

The process

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes about two hours for a bath, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
