Bath resealing at your home in Much Wenlock

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Our repair technicians work on baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are an untidy old seal and gaps in the seal.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, 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.

Prices and what affects them

Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

You don’t 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 reply with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Your questions about bath resealing in Much Wenlock

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • A messy previous reseal

10 questions to ask before you book

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

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

What we work on

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.
