Bath resealing near Mount Pleasant

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Bath resealing in Mount Pleasant without replacing anything

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Our technicians work on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and baths, and people most often call us about a messy previous reseal and sealant that’s split or lifting.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Why it’s worth resealing in Mount Pleasant

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Most jobs done in one visit

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

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

What we work on

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Mount Pleasant

For anyone letting property in or around Mount Pleasant, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

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

Common problems we fix in Mount Pleasant

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

Customers normally contact us about:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Unsealed corners
  • Damp near the bath
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

What to look for in a quote

  • What preparation is included
  • If travel is included in the price
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How the room is protected while they work

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Mount Pleasant questions

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Hertfordshire.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

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

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you quote from pictures?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Store bottles on a shelf

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.
