How we handle bath resealing in Molland

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Typical jobs include silicone coming away from the tiles and unsealed corners, in wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

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

Baths

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

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A flexing bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Signs you need bath resealing in Molland

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

The things clients typically mention when they call are:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Unsealed corners
  • Damp near the bath
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a couple of hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

How we price bath resealing

We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Air the room after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

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.

FAQs for Molland

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

What does bath resealing cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Molland.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
