Bath resealing in Netherton, done in place

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Common call-outs are for missing sealant behind the taps and stained silicone, in wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Open a window after bathing

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

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

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It typically takes around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap 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 the area around the damage
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry

Advice

Your questions about bath resealing in Netherton

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you cover the entire of Dudley?

The whole UK, including all of Dudley. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Is there a guarantee?

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

What bath resealing costs

There’s no charge for travel to Netherton. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Netherton, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Do you need bath resealing in Netherton?

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
