Bath resealing near Sharrington

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Sharrington, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

How we handle bath resealing in Sharrington

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you’re dealing with unsealed corners and leaks at the edges, we can help.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Sharrington, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

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

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Sharrington: your questions answered

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do the materials smell?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How long will it take?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

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, so the joint is at its widest.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a couple of hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Work done at your home or business

Read our prices page.

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
