Bath resealing near Steep

About our bath resealing in Steep

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Whether it’s damp near the bath and gaps in the seal, we can normally put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units alike.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Steep and across Hampshire.

When we would advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Steep use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take around two hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  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. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Resealing in Steep: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Work done at your home or business

Common problems we fix in Steep

Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Damp near the bath
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

What affects the price in Steep

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

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 will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Your questions about bath resealing in Steep

Do you seal over the old sealant?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, so Steep is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Why does mould come back so fast?

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

What happens after I send photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.

Do you come to Steep?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Steep and the rest of Hampshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
