Bath resealing in Rockstowes

Bath resealing at your home in Rockstowes

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 a new seal stops it. If you’re dealing with silicone coming away from the tiles and damp near the bath, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

When to call us in Rockstowes

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Unsealed corners
  • Stained silicone

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the colour is matched

Questions from Rockstowes

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Gloucestershire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Why it’s worth resealing in Rockstowes

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

See our prices page.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Rockstowes

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow about two hours for a bath, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  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. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Air the room after use

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
