Bath resealing for Rudge homes

Landlord and trade work in Rudge

Bath resealing in Rudge, done in place

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include black spots in the silicone and silicone coming away from the tiles, on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Rudge and across Somerset.

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

Our hiring checklist

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Shower trays

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

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

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

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • No need to remove anything
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Questions from Rudge

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

How much does bath resealing cost in Rudge?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

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, then guarantee it for a year.
