Bath resealing near Muston

Bath resealing at your home in Muston

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Our technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths, and the jobs we see most are damp near the bath and gaps in the seal.

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hollow or loose tiles

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

What we work on

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

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

Why reseal now?

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. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We leave the room as we found it

Take a look at our prices page.

What bath resealing costs

We charge the same across the UK, including Muston. What changes the price is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Dry the seal after bathing

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

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Muston: your questions answered

How long will it take?

Generally a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How much does bath resealing cost in Muston?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  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. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

We price from photos 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, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
