Trusted bath resealing in Nutbourne

Common problems we fix in Nutbourne

Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Gaps by the taps

What your quote should include

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Bath resealing at your home in Nutbourne

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Typical jobs include black mould in the sealant and damp near the bath, in basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

FAQs for Nutbourne

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

How long before I can shower?

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

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally around 24 hours.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What affects the price in Nutbourne

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

  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • The material

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Nutbourne. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

The process

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes around two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the area is dry

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
