Bath resealing in Milton

Landlord and trade work in Milton

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Milton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Bath resealing in Milton without replacing anything

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. If you are dealing with leaks at the edges and black mould in the sealant, we can help.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

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

Do you need bath resealing in Milton?

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Gaps by the taps
  • An untidy old seal
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

FAQs for Milton

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Milton and the rest of Somerset. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What bath resealing costs

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Milton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Most clients in Milton get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Air the room after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Use the extractor fan

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
