Bath resealing in Overstone

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Bath resealing in Overstone without replacing anything

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Our repair technicians work on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and people most often call us about gaps in the seal and unsealed corners.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

How we price bath resealing

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Overstone questions

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Do you work in Overstone?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Overstone and the rest of Northamptonshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How it works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow around two hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  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, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

When we’d advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A flexing bath
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

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

Materials we repair

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

Do you need bath resealing in Overstone?

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Gaps by the taps

Before you book anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

Resealing in Overstone: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us
