Bath resealing in Petty France, done in place

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. Typical jobs include silicone coming away from the tiles and gaps by the taps, across baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why Petty France customers choose us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Same prices wherever you are

Take a look at our pricing.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a couple of hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  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

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Your questions about bath resealing in Petty France

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across South Gloucestershire.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Petty France included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Petty France?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

What we can’t put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Air the room after use

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

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

What bath resealing costs

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

If you are in Petty France and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we are called out for in Petty France

In time, even good sealant discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

People normally call us after spotting something like this:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What preparation is included
  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
