Bath resealing near St Jude's

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Bath resealing at your home in St Jude's

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Our repair technicians work on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and the jobs we see most are silicone coming away from the tiles and water getting behind the bath or tray.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Common questions in St Jude's

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, so St Jude's is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

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.

Baths

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

What affects the price in St Jude's

There is no area surcharge for St Jude's. What changes the price is:

  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Same prices wherever you are

Landlords, agents and businesses in St Jude's

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, 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 Bristol and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes around two hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting 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 price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

When to call us in St Jude's

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

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

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • A messy previous reseal

Questions to ask before booking

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How your room will be protected
