Bath resealing for Sandford homes

Bath resealing at your home in Sandford

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are silicone coming away from the tiles and a messy previous reseal.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Why it’s worth resealing in Sandford

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What affects the price in Sandford

We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Sandford, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Hidden water damage
  • A flexing bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

The process

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  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

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Common problems we fix in Sandford

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

The things clients typically mention when they call are:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Gaps by the taps

Comparing quotes

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

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.
