Bath resealing in Sharneyford, done in place

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. If you’re dealing with black mould in the sealant and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can help, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep the joints dry

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Can I fix it myself?

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

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Sharneyford questions

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

How long before I can shower?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sharneyford

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

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

Common problems we fix in Sharneyford

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
