Bath resealing for South Godstone homes

What affects the price in South Godstone

Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How we handle bath resealing in South Godstone

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. If you are dealing with missing sealant behind the taps and leaks at the edges, we can help, whatever the material.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

When to call us in South Godstone

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Stained silicone
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Gaps in the seal

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How changes to the job are handled

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

What we can’t put right

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

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Related advice

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
