Aftercare tips

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

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep the joints dry

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

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.

Bath resealing in Oaks Green, done in place

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. If you’re dealing with leaks at the edges and black spots in the silicone, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Your questions about bath resealing in Oaks Green

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

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

Do you need bath resealing in Oaks Green?

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Sealant that is split or lifting

Comparing quotes

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
