Bath resealing in Nether Compton, done in place

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. If you are dealing with leaks at the edges and unsealed corners, we can help.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Nether Compton

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Nether Compton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

If you manage property in Nether Compton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Prices and what affects them

We don’t charge extra for travel to Nether Compton. The price comes down to:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Nether Compton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

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

Questions from Nether Compton

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

Is there any odour?

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

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do I have to be there?

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Air the room after use
  • Keep the joints dry

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

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

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

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles

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

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
