About our bath resealing in Netherfield

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s gaps by the taps and stained silicone, we can typically put it right, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Netherfield questions

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you come to Netherfield?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Netherfield and the rest of East Sussex. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Honest limits

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

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

When to call us in Netherfield

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Damp near the bath

Questions to ask before booking

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

How we price bath resealing

We don’t charge extra for travel to Netherfield. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Netherfield. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to around two hours, including clearing up.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Netherfield, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Netherfield

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in East Sussex and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Air the room after use
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.

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