Bath resealing for Park Street homes

Bath resealing at your home in Park Street

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. We work on baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most frequently call us about silicone coming away from the tiles and black mould in the sealant.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Questions from Park Street

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you cover Park Street?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Park Street and the rest of Hertfordshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Park Street.

What we’re called out for in Park Street

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

Look out for these signs:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Mould you can’t clean out

How we price bath resealing

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Most clients in Park Street get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  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. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Ensure the area is dry

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
