Bath resealing in Seaford

Your questions about bath resealing in Seaford

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Bath resealing at your home in Seaford

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s unsealed corners and old sealant that looks dirty, we can help.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repairs by material

Baths

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

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take around two hours.

  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. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

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

Related advice

When to call us in Seaford

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

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • A messy previous reseal

Before you book anyone

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What prep work is covered
  • If travel is included in the price

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Seaford

For anyone letting property in or around Seaford, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in East Sussex and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Keep bottles off the joints

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

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Seaford. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
