Bath resealing near Springbourne

Bath resealing at your home in Springbourne

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you’re dealing with water getting behind the bath or tray and silicone smeared on tiles, we can normally put it right.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

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

What we are called out for in Springbourne

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

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

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Gaps by the taps

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What aftercare is recommended

Choosing a repair company

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

For landlords and businesses

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

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Your questions about bath resealing in Springbourne

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What areas do you cover?

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

Do you come to Springbourne?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Springbourne. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

How we price bath resealing

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • A flexing bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
