Bath resealing near South Bank

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Bath resealing in South Bank without replacing anything

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Common call-outs are for discoloured, yellow sealant and gaps in the seal, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and baths.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Common questions in South Bank

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you come to South Bank?

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

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

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

How long before I can shower?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

How long will it take?

Generally a couple of hours, plus curing time.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Signs you need bath resealing in South Bank

Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Customers typically contact us about:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Unsealed corners

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Air the room after use

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Why it’s worth resealing in South Bank

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

Take a look at our pricing.

Prices and what affects them

You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in South Bank as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours, tidy-up included.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
