Your questions about bath resealing in Radwell

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Are there extra charges for Radwell?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

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

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

How much does bath resealing cost in Radwell?

We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your MK43 postcode.

About our bath resealing in Radwell

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Common call-outs are for missing sealant behind the taps and water getting behind the bath or tray, in baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Bedford Borough and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

How to look after the repair

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

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Keep the joints dry

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Radwell. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow about two hours for a bath.

  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. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Common problems we fix in Radwell

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Common reasons people in Radwell contact us are:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
