Bath resealing in Springhill

About our bath resealing in Springhill

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, as one neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s leaks at the edges and an untidy old seal, we can help, on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures alike.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Springhill

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Let steam out 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.

What bath resealing costs

There’s no charge for travel to Springhill. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • The type of damage

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode

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

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a couple of hours. The room is left tidy.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • 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 photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

10 questions to ask before you book

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

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

What we work on

  • Shower trays & enclosures

Springhill questions

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Springhill included. Travel is included in the price.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
