Bath resealing near South Milton

About our bath resealing in South Milton

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths, and the jobs we see most are black mould in the sealant and an untidy old seal.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in South Milton

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in South Milton use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

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

Questions from South Milton

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Devon, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

How long before I can shower?

Normally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

How long does a reseal take?

Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Why it’s worth resealing in South Milton

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  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. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What we are called out for in South Milton

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Sealant that is split or lifting

Comparing quotes

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What prep work is covered
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

10 questions to ask before booking

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Air the room after use
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
