Bath resealing for Norton homes

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint 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, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

Bath resealing in Norton, done in place

We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, plus curing time. We’re frequently asked to fix black mould in the sealant and water getting behind the bath or tray, in basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Air the room after use
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Norton

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Norton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

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.

FAQs for Norton

Do you work in Norton?

We do. Technicians travel to Norton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Repairs by material

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

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

How we price bath resealing

Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Most customers in Norton get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

The things clients typically mention when they call include:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

  • Gaps by the taps

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • When it can be used again
  • Who will actually do the work
