FAQs for Oakley

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How much does bath resealing cost in Oakley?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

How do I book?

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

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

How we handle bath resealing in Oakley

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Typical jobs include a messy previous reseal and mould you can’t clean out, in shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Why it’s worth resealing in Oakley

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Air the room after use

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  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. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hidden water damage
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How we price bath resealing

There’s no area surcharge for Oakley. What changes the price is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A picture taken from further back

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

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, so the joint is at its widest.

When to call us in Oakley

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Damp near the bath
  • Unsealed corners
  • Stained silicone

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • When it can be used again
