Bath resealing for St Vincent's Hamlet homes

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Bath resealing in St Vincent's Hamlet without replacing anything

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We’re often asked to fix silicone coming away from the tiles and a messy previous reseal, on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures.

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.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Movement in the bath or tray

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Air the room after use

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

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

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Related advice

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in St Vincent's Hamlet use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What bath resealing costs

We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for St Vincent's Hamlet. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash

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

What we are called out for in St Vincent's Hamlet

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Unsealed corners
  • An untidy old seal

Questions to ask before you book

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How to care for the finish
  • How soon you can use it again

How to compare quotes

Common questions in St Vincent's Hamlet

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

Do you come to St Vincent's Hamlet?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to St Vincent's Hamlet from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
