How we handle bath resealing in Mitcham

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Typical jobs include stained silicone and silicone smeared on tiles, in shower trays & enclosures, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

How to compare quotes

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  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
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Your questions about bath resealing in Mitcham

How much does bath resealing cost in Mitcham?

Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your CR4 postcode.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

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

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Keep bottles off the joints

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

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CR4 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
