Bath resealing near Nibley Green

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Bath resealing at your home in Nibley Green

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Typical jobs include silicone coming away from the tiles and stained silicone, across basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Nibley Green

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Nibley Green as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What we cannot put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A flexing bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

FAQs for Nibley Green

How long does silicone take to cure?

You will get the curing time from us, generally around a day.

Is there any odour?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

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

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes around two hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  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. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What bath resealing costs

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For a price in Nibley Green, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Air the room after use
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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

Signs you need bath resealing in Nibley Green

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
