Bath resealing for Okehampton homes

Bath resealing in Okehampton, done in place

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. If you are dealing with gaps by the taps and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can help, whatever the material.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Okehampton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What a repair cannot fix

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes around two hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint 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

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

10 questions to ask before you book

How we price bath resealing

There’s no charge for travel to Okehampton. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size

If you’re in Okehampton and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Common questions in Okehampton

Do you work in Okehampton?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Okehampton. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Normally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.

Are there extra charges for Okehampton?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Resealing in Okehampton: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
