Bath resealing in Quenington

Bath resealing in Quenington, done in place

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s black mould in the sealant and old sealant that looks dirty, we can help, whatever the material.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take around two hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

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

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Use the extractor fan

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.

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

Quenington: your questions answered

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Does someone need to be in?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

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.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Gloucestershire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Normally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

What bath resealing costs

We charge the same across the UK, including Quenington. What changes the price is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Quenington. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
