Bath resealing in Seavington St Mary

When a repair isn’t the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A flexing bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Seavington St Mary

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

Bath resealing in Seavington St Mary without replacing anything

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, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about sealant that’s split or lifting and mould you can’t clean out.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Seavington St Mary questions

Do you seal over the old sealant?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

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. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

Resealing in Seavington St Mary: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

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

What we are called out for in Seavington St Mary

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

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Damp near the bath

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
