Questions from South Cheriton

How much does bath resealing cost in South Cheriton?

We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BA8 postcode.

How long will it take?

A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, normally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Are there extra charges for South Cheriton?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Bath resealing in South Cheriton without replacing anything

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Our technicians work on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are gaps in the seal and stained silicone.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Resealing in South Cheriton: why it matters

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Let steam out after showers

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

When to call us in South Cheriton

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
