Bath resealing in Plaistow Green

How we handle bath resealing in Plaistow Green

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and the jobs we see most are old sealant that looks dirty and a messy previous reseal.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we are called out for in Plaistow Green

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Unsealed corners
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

10 questions to ask before you book

What affects the price in Plaistow Green

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Plaistow Green. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Keep the joints dry

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes around two hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
