Bath resealing in Nalderswood

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Bath resealing in Nalderswood without replacing anything

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed using mould-resistant silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are leaks at the edges and black mould in the sealant.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Your questions about bath resealing in Nalderswood

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Typically because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Landlord and trade work in Nalderswood

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Prices and what affects them

Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your RH2 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What you get with us
