Bath resealing in Sandfields West, 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. Common call-outs are for gaps by the taps and leaks at the edges, on wet rooms, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

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

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Common problems we fix in Sandfields West

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

Customers typically contact us about:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

Comparing quotes

  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Choosing a repair company

Questions from Sandfields West

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Can new silicone go over old?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Are there extra charges for Sandfields West?

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

When we would advise against a repair

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hidden water damage
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a couple of hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sandfields West

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
