Bath resealing in Rodhuish

Bath resealing in Rodhuish, done in place

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are black mould in the sealant and missing sealant behind the taps.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Rodhuish questions

How long before I can shower?

We will give you the curing time, usually around a day.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Do you cover Rodhuish?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Rodhuish. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

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.

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

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

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

What a repair cannot fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A flexing bath

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Resealing in Rodhuish: why it matters

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Common problems we fix in Rodhuish

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

Clients typically contact us about:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Our hiring checklist

How it works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
