About our bath resealing in Port Logan

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Typical jobs include water getting behind the bath or tray and mould you can’t clean out, in kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and wet rooms.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

What affects the price in Port Logan

There is no area surcharge for Port Logan. What changes the price is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

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

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Port Logan, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What we are called out for in Port Logan

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

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Damp near the bath
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

What to look for in a quote

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Aftercare advice

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

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

Port Logan: your questions answered

How long does a reseal take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Do you cover Port Logan?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Port Logan from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
