Bath resealing in Picket Twenty, done in place

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. If you are dealing with leaks at the edges and unsealed corners, we can usually put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, baths and basins & vanity units alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

10 questions to ask before you book

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Your questions about bath resealing in Picket Twenty

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Picket Twenty?

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

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

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

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
