Trusted bath resealing in Ruardean Woodside

Bath resealing in Ruardean Woodside without replacing anything

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We are often asked to fix gaps in the seal and black spots in the silicone, in baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What bath resealing costs

You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Ruardean Woodside questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you cover the whole of Gloucestershire?

We cover the whole UK, including Ruardean Woodside and the rest of Gloucestershire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can new silicone go over old?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

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

Materials we repair

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

When to call us in Ruardean Woodside

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Stained silicone
  • Damp near the bath
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

What to look for in a quote

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How the colour is matched

10 questions to ask before you book

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

Advice

Is resealing worth it?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Why us?

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Take a look at our full price list.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Air the room after use
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
