How we handle bath resealing in St Quivox

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s missing sealant behind the taps and a messy previous reseal, we can help, on baths, basins & vanity units and wet rooms alike.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

FAQs for St Quivox

Are there extra charges for St Quivox?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

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

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

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 work for landlords and businesses?

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

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

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

Why it’s worth resealing in St Quivox

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Air the room after use
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Prices and what affects them

There is no charge for travel to St Quivox. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your KA6 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

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