Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

About our bath resealing in Shut Heath

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. If you are dealing with silicone coming away from the tiles and silicone smeared on tiles, we can usually put it right.

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

Why it’s worth resealing in Shut Heath

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Common problems we fix in Shut Heath

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

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Stained silicone
  • An untidy old seal
  • Mould you cannot clean out

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Your questions about bath resealing in Shut Heath

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Are there extra charges for Shut Heath?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

What does bath resealing cost?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How long before I can shower?

Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Hidden water damage
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

The process

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
