Otterbourne questions

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

How much does bath resealing cost in Otterbourne?

We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your SO21 postcode.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How long does resealing take?

Typically a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Bath resealing at your home in Otterbourne

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and people most frequently call us about discoloured, yellow sealant and black mould in the sealant.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Otterbourne as everywhere else we work.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Why it’s worth resealing in Otterbourne

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Do you need bath resealing in Otterbourne?

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Unsealed corners
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting

Questions to ask before you book

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • If travel is included in the price

10 questions to ask before booking

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Air the room after use
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

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

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

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

How we price bath resealing

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Otterbourne. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
