Bath resealing in Mill Green

About our bath resealing in Mill Green

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Typical jobs include missing sealant behind the taps and black mould in the sealant, in wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

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

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

10 questions to ask before you book

Prices and what affects them

There’s no charge for travel to Mill Green. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

How long will it take?

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

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
