Trusted bath resealing in Newgate Street

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Bath resealing at your home in Newgate Street

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. We’re frequently asked to fix silicone coming away from the tiles and leaks at the edges, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Let steam out after showers

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

How we price bath resealing

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Common questions in Newgate Street

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Hertfordshire.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Common problems we fix in Newgate Street

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Unsealed corners

Why it’s worth resealing in Newgate Street

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
