Bath resealing for Shotwick homes

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Store bottles on a shelf

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

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What bath resealing costs

We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

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. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath. We leave the room clean.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  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. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

FAQs for Shotwick

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

How long will it take?

A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Do you need bath resealing in Shotwick?

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

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Stained silicone
  • Gaps in the seal
