Bath resealing at your home in Midanbury

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. If you’re dealing with black mould in the sealant and old sealant that looks dirty, we can help.

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.

How we price bath resealing

We charge the same across the UK, including Midanbury. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size

If you’re in Midanbury and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

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

What we work on

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

FAQs for Midanbury

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

When to call us in Midanbury

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

Common reasons people in Midanbury contact us include:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles

Resealing in Midanbury: why it matters

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

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

Shower trays

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
