Trusted bath resealing in Rowfant

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Air the room after use
  • Use the extractor fan

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

How we handle bath resealing in Rowfant

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. If you are dealing with unsealed corners and stained silicone, we can usually put it right, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Rowfant questions

Do I need to be at home?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of West Sussex. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

How much does bath resealing cost in Rowfant?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

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

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Rowfant

We do not charge extra for travel to Rowfant. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your RH10 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes around two hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it 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.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
