Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

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

Bath resealing at your home in Meaver

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. We work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and people most often call us about black spots in the silicone and silicone smeared on tiles.

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A flexing bath
  • Hidden water damage
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

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

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Meaver

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

How we price bath resealing

There is no charge for travel to Meaver. The price comes down to:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Meaver questions

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Are there extra charges for Meaver?

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

How much does bath resealing cost in Meaver?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

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. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take about two hours for a bath.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
