Bath resealing for North Buckland homes

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Bath resealing in North Buckland, done in place

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. We work on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and people most often call us about unsealed corners and silicone coming away from the tiles.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Why reseal now?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Landlord and trade work in North Buckland

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, a professional repair is worth it.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

FAQs for North Buckland

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

How much does bath resealing cost in North Buckland?

Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your EX33 postcode.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours, 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. 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

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Open a window after bathing

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

When to call us in North Buckland

Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Leaks at the edges

What your quote should include

  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What prep work is covered
