Bath resealing in Redbridge

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How we handle bath resealing in Redbridge

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. Whether it’s sealant that’s split or lifting and discoloured, yellow sealant, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your DT2 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Redbridge

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Redbridge as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Redbridge questions

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Dorset. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

Will it make a mess?

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

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DT2 postcode.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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