Bath resealing in Ramsnest Common

How we handle bath resealing in Ramsnest Common

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Whether it’s water getting behind the bath or tray and black mould in the sealant, we can help, whatever the material.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ramsnest Common

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for around two hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  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, taps included.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Ramsnest Common, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Honest limits

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

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A flexing bath
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

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

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What we’re called out for in Ramsnest Common

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Gaps by the taps

Comparing quotes

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What prep work is covered

10 questions to ask before you book

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Questions from Ramsnest Common

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time, generally around a day.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you cover Ramsnest Common?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Ramsnest Common. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How long will it take?

A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

How we price bath resealing

Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Most clients in Ramsnest Common get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Why it’s worth resealing in Ramsnest Common

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
