Bath resealing in Slimbridge

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

How we handle bath resealing in Slimbridge

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Whether it’s sealant that’s split or lifting and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can typically put it right, on baths, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

What affects the price in Slimbridge

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once

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 photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can price the job without visiting.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why Slimbridge clients choose us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Do you need bath resealing in Slimbridge?

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Mould you cannot clean out

What your quote should include

  • If travel is included in the price
  • How to look after the finish
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Slimbridge

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, 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. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Slimbridge questions

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

How long will it take?

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

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Do you work in Slimbridge?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Slimbridge from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Air the room after use
  • Give the seal a regular clean

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

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.

What a repair cannot fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
