Bath resealing at your home in North Heath

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s missing sealant behind the taps and an untidy old seal, we can help.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Why it’s worth resealing in North Heath

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why North Heath clients choose us

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

See our prices page.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your RG20 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Do you need bath resealing in North Heath?

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

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

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Stained silicone
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Mould you can’t clean out

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

10 questions to ask before booking

North Heath questions

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you come to North Heath?

We do. Technicians travel to North Heath from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

How much does bath resealing cost in North Heath?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

What affects the price in North Heath

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
