Bath resealing in Medbourne

How we handle bath resealing in Medbourne

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. Typical jobs include missing sealant behind the taps and sealant that’s split or lifting, in basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Our hiring checklist

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • A flexing bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What affects the price in Medbourne

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

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Most clients in Medbourne get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Common questions in Medbourne

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do you work in Medbourne?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Medbourne and the rest of Swindon. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

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

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
