Bath resealing near Sherston

Bath resealing in Sherston, done in place

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. We work on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and common reasons people contact us are gaps by the taps and leaks at the edges.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down 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. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Open a window after bathing

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

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

Baths

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

When to call us in Sherston

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Stained silicone
  • An untidy old seal
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

What your quote should include

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether they match the colour on site
