Book bath resealing in Portmore

Work for landlords and builders

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.

If you manage property in Portmore, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

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

Do you need bath resealing in Portmore?

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Before booking anyone

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How to look after the finish
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Portmore questions

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you come to Portmore?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Portmore for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time.

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

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

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.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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 usually cheaper.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A flexing bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Portmore

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

Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • No need to remove anything
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A fixed quote before booking

Take a look at our full price list.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know about parking or access
