About our bath resealing in North Holmwood

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. Common call-outs are for old sealant that looks dirty and unsealed corners, in basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Surrey.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Air the room after use
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

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

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Your questions about bath resealing in North Holmwood

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Signs you need bath resealing in North Holmwood

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Gaps by the taps

What your quote should include

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What preparation is included

How to compare quotes

What bath resealing costs

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Resealing in North Holmwood: why it matters

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One visit for most repairs

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  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.
