Bath resealing near Pickhurst

About our bath resealing in Pickhurst

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Typical jobs include black spots in the silicone and missing sealant behind the taps, in shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and baths.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Pickhurst as everywhere else we work.

For landlords and businesses

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.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Pickhurst questions

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

How long before I can shower?

You will get the curing time from us, generally around a day.

How soon can you come?

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

How we price bath resealing

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Pickhurst, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Air the room after use
  • Keep the joints dry

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, generally around 24 hours.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take around two hours.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

Do you need bath resealing in Pickhurst?

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Damp near the bath

Before booking anyone

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How your room will be protected

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Repairs by material

Baths

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

Shower trays

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