Trusted bath resealing in Pimlico

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.

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

How we handle bath resealing in Pimlico

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. If you’re dealing with gaps in the seal and unsealed corners, we can typically put it right.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What affects the price in Pimlico

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What we are called out for in Pimlico

In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Black mould in the sealant

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How the colour is matched
  • What prep work is covered
  • How changes to the job are handled

How to compare quotes

Pimlico: your questions answered

Can you quote from photos?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

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

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Can new silicone go over old?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

How much does bath resealing cost in Pimlico?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Pimlico. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A flexing bath

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pimlico

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
