Bath resealing near South Ealing

Bath resealing in South Ealing without replacing anything

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We work on shower trays & enclosures, baths and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are a messy previous reseal and missing sealant behind the taps.

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

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes around two hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Greater London and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

DIY kit or professional 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What affects the price in South Ealing

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

When we would advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Resealing in South Ealing: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

FAQs for South Ealing

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Greater London. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Normally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
