Bath resealing in Pinhoe

Why reseal now?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • No need to remove anything
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Bath resealing at your home in Pinhoe

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. If you are dealing with gaps by the taps and a messy previous reseal, we can help, on shower trays & enclosures, baths and wet rooms alike.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hidden water damage
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Pinhoe

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, a professional repair is worth it.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Landlord and trade work in Pinhoe

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

What affects the price in Pinhoe

You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work

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.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Questions from Pinhoe

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Will it make a mess?

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

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Pinhoe and the rest of Devon. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do you need bath resealing in Pinhoe?

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Stained silicone
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Gaps by the taps

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • What prep work is covered
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Our hiring checklist

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

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