Bath resealing for Sewstern homes

Bath resealing at your home in Sewstern

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. If you are dealing with black spots in the silicone and an untidy old seal, we can help, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Prices and what affects them

We charge the same across the UK, including Sewstern. What changes the price is:

  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material

Most clients in Sewstern get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Honest limits

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

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Sewstern: your questions answered

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

How long will it take?

A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Is resealing worth it?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. 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 book with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • No need to remove anything

Landlord and trade work in Sewstern

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sewstern use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

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

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

If you are in Sewstern and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Advice

Do you need bath resealing in Sewstern?

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

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Stained silicone
  • A messy previous reseal

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How long it needs to cure
