Bath resealing in Prestonville without replacing anything

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Common call-outs are for a messy previous reseal and gaps by the taps, in shower trays & enclosures, baths and wet rooms.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Brighton and Hove.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

What affects the price in Prestonville

We do not charge extra for travel to Prestonville. The price comes down to:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Prestonville: your questions answered

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Brighton and Hove.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

How long before I can shower?

You’ll get the curing time from us.

When can you do it?

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Prestonville

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Prestonville use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What we are called out for in Prestonville

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

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Stained silicone
  • Mould you can’t clean out

Before you book anyone

  • When it can be used again
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  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
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why Prestonville customers choose us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Take a look at our full price list.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

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