We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Common call-outs are for stained silicone and leaks at the edges, in shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice

Honest limits

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

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Landlord and trade work in Nailwell

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Common problems we fix in Nailwell

In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Gaps by the taps

Questions to ask before you book

  • When it can be used again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

Common questions in Nailwell

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Usually after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Do you cover the whole of Bath and North East Somerset?

Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you come to Nailwell?

We do. We send a technician to Nailwell for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

How we price bath resealing

We do not charge extra for travel to Nailwell. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Resealing in Nailwell: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
