Why it’s worth resealing in Silverhill

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Everything repaired in place

Bath resealing in Silverhill without replacing anything

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Whether it’s discoloured, yellow sealant and gaps in the seal, we can help.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Air the room after use
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes around two hours.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

What affects the price in Silverhill

We don’t charge extra for travel to Silverhill. The price comes down to:

  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
