Bath resealing in Pendomer

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Bath resealing in Pendomer without replacing anything

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Our technicians work on basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and people most frequently call us about silicone coming away from the tiles and black spots in the silicone.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Your questions about bath resealing in Pendomer

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you cover Pendomer?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Pendomer from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Air the room after use

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a couple of hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

How we price bath resealing

We do not charge extra for travel to Pendomer. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is

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. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
