Bath resealing for Oldbury-on-Severn homes

How we handle bath resealing in Oldbury-on-Severn

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We’re frequently asked to fix mould you can’t clean out and damp near the bath, across baths, basins & vanity units and wet rooms.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Why it’s worth resealing in Oldbury-on-Severn

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it

Most customers in Oldbury-on-Severn get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Oldbury-on-Severn questions

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of South Gloucestershire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

How long before I can shower?

We will give you the curing time, usually around a day.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

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