Bath resealing at your home in Sea Mills

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Typical jobs include silicone smeared on tiles and water getting behind the bath or tray, across shower trays & enclosures, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bristol.

What bath resealing costs

We charge the same across the UK, including Sea Mills. The price reflects:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A picture taken from further back

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes around two hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  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. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the area is dry

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Advice

Sea Mills: your questions answered

What happens after I send pictures?

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

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

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

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Why reseal now?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why us?

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

What we are called out for in Sea Mills

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

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Unsealed corners
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

Before booking anyone

  • What preparation is included
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether they match the colour on site
