Bath resealing in Red Hill

About our bath resealing in Red Hill

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s stained silicone and silicone smeared on tiles, we can help, on wet rooms, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  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. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Landlord and trade work in Red Hill

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Rental properties take more wear, 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.

Resealing in Red Hill: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How we price bath resealing

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Your questions about bath resealing in Red Hill

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Do you need bath resealing in Red Hill?

In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Mould you can’t clean out

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • What preparation is included
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What protection goes down before work starts
