About our bath resealing in Meadgate East

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about leaks at the edges and sealant that’s split or lifting.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Why it’s worth resealing in Meadgate East

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Same prices wherever you are

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Unsealed corners
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

FAQs for Meadgate East

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

How long does a reseal take?

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

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

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

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Bath and North East Somerset, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

How we price bath resealing

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

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

Materials we work on in Meadgate East

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

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Let steam out after showers

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

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