Bath resealing in North Greenwich

Bath resealing at your home in North Greenwich

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. If you are dealing with sealant that’s split or lifting and leaks at the edges, we can usually put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Air the room after use
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in North Greenwich

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

What bath resealing costs

You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash

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, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

When to call us in North Greenwich

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

People usually call us when they notice something like this:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • An untidy old seal
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Mould you cannot clean out

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take around two hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

North Greenwich questions

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

How long does resealing take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What areas do you cover?

All of Greater London, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can you quote from photos?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
