The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Bath resealing at your home in Queen's Cross

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Common call-outs are for unsealed corners and discoloured, yellow sealant, in kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and wet rooms.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Queen's Cross use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

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

What we can’t put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hollow or loose tiles

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Your questions about bath resealing in Queen's Cross

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Queen's Cross. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Queen's Cross.

Do you work in Queen's Cross?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Queen's Cross. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What affects the price in Queen's Cross

There’s no charge for travel to Queen's Cross. The price comes down to:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Why reseal now?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
