Book bath resealing in Queen's Park

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How we handle bath resealing in Queen's Park

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Typical jobs include missing sealant behind the taps and damp near the bath, on basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Queen's Park as everywhere else we work.

Queen's Park: your questions answered

When can I use the bath after resealing?

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

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

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

Do I need to be at home?

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

Do you charge for travel?

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

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.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Signs you need bath resealing in Queen's Park

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Damp near the bath
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

Comparing quotes

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What happens if they find more damage

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Open a window after bathing

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

How it works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes about two hours for a bath. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  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. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

What affects the price in Queen's Park

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Most customers in Queen's Park get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
