Bath resealing near Oakridge Lynch

Bath resealing in Oakridge Lynch, done in place

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Our technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are old sealant that looks dirty and black mould in the sealant.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What bath resealing costs

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

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

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

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.

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Same prices wherever you are

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

When to call us in Oakridge Lynch

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Gaps in the seal
  • A messy previous reseal
