Trusted bath resealing in Niton

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can

Bath resealing in Niton, done in place

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. If you’re dealing with black mould in the sealant and a messy previous reseal, we can help.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Use the extractor fan

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Niton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Resealing in Niton: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Common problems we fix in Niton

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Common reasons people in Niton contact us are:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Before booking anyone

  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the colour is matched
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Who will actually do the work

10 questions to ask before you book

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

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