Bath resealing near Silchester

Can I fix it myself?

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 are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Bath resealing in Silchester without replacing anything

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Whether it’s gaps in the seal and black spots in the silicone, we can typically put it right.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

10 questions to ask before booking

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

How we price bath resealing

We do not charge extra for travel to Silchester. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Most clients in Silchester get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

FAQs for Silchester

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Why does mould come back so fast?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

We will give you the curing time.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes around two hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Why it’s worth resealing in Silchester

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • No need to remove anything

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
