About our bath resealing in Norrington Common

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Typical jobs include an untidy old seal and old sealant that looks dirty, across kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A flexing bath
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal

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

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

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Norrington Common use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to around two hours, tidy-up included.

  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. 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

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

What affects the price in Norrington Common

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

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

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Norrington Common. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

FAQs for Norrington Common

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

How much does bath resealing cost in Norrington Common?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

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

How soon can you come?

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