Bath resealing in Rode Heath

Bath resealing in Rode Heath without replacing anything

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Common call-outs are for stained silicone and sealant that’s split or lifting, across wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Rode Heath and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Landlord and trade work in Rode Heath

We’re 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 things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow about two hours for a bath. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How we price bath resealing

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Rode Heath questions

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

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

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Common problems we fix in Rode Heath

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Gaps by the taps

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Our hiring checklist

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Open a window after bathing

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

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

Baths

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