About our bath resealing in Perry Common

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Whether it’s an untidy old seal and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

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

Questions from Perry Common

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How long does resealing take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

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

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Perry Common, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your B23 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What affects the price in Perry Common

We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Details of any past repairs

For a price in Perry Common, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Signs you need bath resealing in Perry Common

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Damp near the bath
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

Questions to ask before you book

  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price covers travel

Our hiring checklist

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
