About our bath resealing in Piddletrenthide

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and people most frequently call us about unsealed corners and water getting behind the bath or tray.

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

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

For anyone letting property in or around Piddletrenthide, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

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

Do you need bath resealing in Piddletrenthide?

Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • When it can be used again
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the price covers travel

10 questions to ask before you book

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 normally the cheaper route.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Your questions about bath resealing in Piddletrenthide

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Will you leave a mess?

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

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

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

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

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.

How we price bath resealing

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
