Bath resealing near Mansewood

Prices and what affects them

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Send photos for a quote

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Bath resealing at your home in Mansewood

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We work on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and common reasons people contact us are unsealed corners and mould you can’t clean out.

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

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes around two hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  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. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

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

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Common questions in Mansewood

When can I use the bath after resealing?

We will give you the curing time.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you work in Mansewood?

We do. We send a technician to Mansewood for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

What does bath resealing cost?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

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

Why reseal now?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Signs you need bath resealing in Mansewood

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Stained silicone
  • An untidy old seal

Comparing quotes

  • How your room will be protected
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I fix it myself?

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

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
