Trusted bath resealing in Pulloxhill

About our bath resealing in Pulloxhill

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Our repair technicians work on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about silicone smeared on tiles and gaps in the seal.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Questions from Pulloxhill

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Typically after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

How soon can you come?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Common problems we fix in Pulloxhill

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

Resealing in Pulloxhill: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Why Pulloxhill customers choose us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Everything repaired in place
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

See our full price list.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Open a window after bathing

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
