Bath resealing near Much Dewchurch

Bath resealing in Much Dewchurch without replacing anything

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We are often asked to fix sealant that’s split or lifting and a messy previous reseal, across wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Much Dewchurch

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Herefordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Common problems we fix in Much Dewchurch

In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Unsealed corners
  • Mould you can’t clean out

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • When it can be used again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Why it’s worth resealing in Much Dewchurch

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Common questions in Much Dewchurch

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

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

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do I have to be there?

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

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Usually because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
