Trusted bath resealing in Polzeath

How we handle bath resealing in Polzeath

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. Our technicians work on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and common reasons people get in touch are silicone smeared on tiles and damp near the bath.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What you get with us

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Repairs by material

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

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

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Polzeath

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Polzeath

Is there any odour?

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

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you come to Polzeath?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Polzeath. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

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 quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Signs you need bath resealing in Polzeath

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Damp near the bath
  • Stained silicone
  • A messy previous reseal

10 questions to ask before booking

Landlord and trade work in Polzeath

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

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
