Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Overpool, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a couple of hours. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint 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

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

Your questions about bath resealing in Overpool

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

How long will it take?

A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Are there extra charges for Overpool?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

You will get the curing time from us, normally around a day.

Resealing in Overpool: 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. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Air the room after use
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

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

How we price bath resealing

We charge the same across the UK, including Overpool. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
