Book bath resealing in Poulshot

How it works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, tidy-up included.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  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 pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Bath resealing at your home in Poulshot

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. We are frequently asked to fix sealant that’s split or lifting and water getting behind the bath or tray, across kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Keep the joints dry

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

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Landlord and trade work in Poulshot

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

FAQs for Poulshot

Are there extra charges for Poulshot?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Do you seal over the old sealant?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Poulshot?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
