Bath resealing in St Lawrence, done in place

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. Common call-outs are for a messy previous reseal and black mould in the sealant, on baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Why reseal now?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

If you manage property in St Lawrence, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Air the room after use
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

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

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

Do you need bath resealing in St Lawrence?

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Look out for these signs:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Damp near the bath
  • Black spots in the silicone

Before you book anyone

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How soon you can use it again

Our hiring checklist

Your questions about bath resealing in St Lawrence

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Do you cover the entire of Isle of Wight?

We cover the whole UK, including St Lawrence and the rest of Isle of Wight. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

What affects the price in St Lawrence

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

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know about parking or access
