Bath resealing for Marshchapel homes

About our bath resealing in Marshchapel

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. We work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and people most frequently call us about gaps in the seal and water getting behind the bath or tray.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

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

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes around two hours. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice

How we price bath resealing

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it

If you are in Marshchapel and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Read our prices page.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Open a window after bathing

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

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

When to call us in Marshchapel

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

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
