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

Bath resealing at your home in Patcham

We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops. Most jobs take a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. Our repair technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and common reasons people contact us are gaps by the taps and a messy previous reseal.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a couple of hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Patcham: your questions answered

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Patcham?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Brighton and Hove. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Landlord and trade work in Patcham

If you manage property in Patcham, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Let steam out after showers

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

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

When to call us in Patcham

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • An untidy old seal
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting

What your quote should include

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What prep work is covered
  • How to care for the finish
  • How changes to the job are handled

10 questions to ask before booking

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Patcham. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • No extra charge for your area

How we price bath resealing

There is no area surcharge for Patcham. The price reflects:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
