Bath resealing in Mile End

Bath resealing in Mile End, done in place

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Common call-outs are for missing sealant behind the taps and a messy previous reseal, on wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Landlord and trade work in Mile End

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Signs you need bath resealing in Mile End

Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Damp near the bath

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What prep work is covered

10 questions to ask before booking

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Mile End. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Resealing in Mile End: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Most jobs done in one visit

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

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.

Mile End questions

Why does mould come back so fast?

Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Mile End and the rest of Gloucestershire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
