Bath resealing in North Newton

How we handle bath resealing in North Newton

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. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, baths and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are black mould in the sealant and old sealant that looks dirty.

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

What bath resealing costs

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Open a window after bathing

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally around 24 hours.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

North Newton questions

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including North Newton and the rest of Somerset. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is my repair covered?

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

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Resealing in North Newton: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for North Newton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Same prices wherever you are

Read our prices page.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

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. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
