About our bath resealing in Playden

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 resealing puts a stop to that. Typical jobs include gaps by the taps and silicone coming away from the tiles, on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures.

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

Repairs by material

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

What affects the price in Playden

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TN31 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Work for landlords and builders

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

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Common questions in Playden

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you cover Playden?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Playden and the rest of East Sussex. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you cover the whole of East Sussex?

All of East Sussex, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Shower trays & enclosures

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow about two hours for a bath. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
