Trusted bath resealing in Newenden

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Bath resealing at your home in Newenden

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. Common call-outs are for gaps in the seal and silicone smeared on tiles, in baths, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Newenden

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

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

Baths

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

Why reseal now?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Everything repaired in place
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

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

Newenden questions

Do you come to Newenden?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Newenden from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

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

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

How long does a reseal take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Signs you need bath resealing in Newenden

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Black mould in the sealant

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Aftercare advice
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether they match the colour on site
