Bath resealing near Purley

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Bath resealing in Purley without replacing anything

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed. Most jobs take a couple of hours, plus curing time. Whether it’s unsealed corners and old sealant that looks dirty, we can usually put it right, on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and baths alike.

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

Landlord and trade work in Purley

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

For anyone letting property in or around Purley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Why it’s worth resealing in Purley

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Purley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Work done at your home or business
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

FAQs for Purley

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Do you charge for travel?

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

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you work in Purley?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Purley for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a couple of hours, including clearing up.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

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

Related advice

Do you need bath resealing in Purley?

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Damp near the bath
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • A flexing bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
