When to call us in Milford on Sea

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

Common reasons people in Milford on Sea contact us include:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Questions to ask before you book

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether they match the colour on site

10 questions to ask before booking

Bath resealing in Milford on Sea, done in place

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We’re often asked to fix silicone coming away from the tiles and mould you can’t clean out, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

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

How we price bath resealing

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Your questions about bath resealing in Milford on Sea

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How long will it take?

A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Milford on Sea. Prices don’t change with location.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Milford on Sea as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow around two hours.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

What a repair cannot fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Baths

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing costs very little. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
