About our bath resealing in Merton

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. We regularly repair baths, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are sealant that’s split or lifting and black mould in the sealant.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Merton

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What bath resealing costs

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

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Merton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A flexing bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Basins & vanity units

Your questions about bath resealing in Merton

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

Do you work in Merton?

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

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Merton?

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

Will there be a smell?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

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

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
