Bath resealing in Pedlars End

Bath resealing in Pedlars End without replacing anything

We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours. If you are dealing with gaps by the taps and an untidy old seal, we can help, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths alike.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Open a window if you can

When we’d advise against a repair

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • One visit for most repairs

See our prices page.

Prices and what affects them

You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Pedlars End questions

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What does bath resealing cost?

We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Can pets and children be at home?

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

What do you need from me?

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Do you need bath resealing in Pedlars End?

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Unsealed corners
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
