Book bath resealing in Norbury

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Bath resealing in Norbury, done in place

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Our technicians work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are gaps in the seal and unsealed corners.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Norbury questions

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

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How long will it take?

A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you come to Norbury?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Norbury from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

How we price bath resealing

We don’t charge extra for travel to Norbury. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Norbury, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

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

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Do you need bath resealing in Norbury?

In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Mould you cannot clean out

Before booking anyone

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Aftercare advice
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether they match the colour on site

How to compare quotes

When we’d advise against a repair

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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