Bath resealing for Old Chiswick homes

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Advice

How we handle bath resealing in Old Chiswick

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Common call-outs are for missing sealant behind the taps and leaks at the edges, across baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Use the extractor fan

Run 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, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

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 often lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Do you need bath resealing in Old Chiswick?

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

Our hiring checklist

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • We leave the room as we found it

Your questions about bath resealing in Old Chiswick

Do you cover Old Chiswick?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Old Chiswick for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you cover the whole of Greater London?

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Will the price change on the day?

Do you seal over the old sealant?

How we price bath resealing

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your W4 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Hollow or loose tiles

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
