Why it’s worth resealing in Monks Orchard

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • One visit for most repairs
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Monks Orchard

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

How the visit works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Let steam out after showers

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Monks Orchard

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Repairs by material

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

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

Common questions in Monks Orchard

What does bath resealing cost?

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

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you quote from photos?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Do you need bath resealing in Monks Orchard?

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Black mould in the sealant

Before you book anyone

  • Aftercare advice
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How soon you can use it again
