Bath resealing near Monewden

How we handle bath resealing in Monewden

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We’re often asked to fix missing sealant behind the taps and sealant that’s split or lifting, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Monewden

  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Baths

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Monewden: your questions answered

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Monewden. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take around two hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Air the room after use
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

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

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

How we price bath resealing

We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
