Bath resealing at your home in Primrose Hill

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. If you are dealing with leaks at the edges and an untidy old seal, we can typically put it right, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

What affects the price in Primrose Hill

There is no charge for travel to Primrose Hill. The price comes down to:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it

For a price in Primrose Hill, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

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.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Primrose Hill

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

If you manage property in Primrose Hill, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Signs you need bath resealing in Primrose Hill

Common reasons people in Primrose Hill contact us include:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Leaks at the edges

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.

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

Why reseal now?

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. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Questions from Primrose Hill

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

We will give you the curing time.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

How long does a reseal take?

A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
