Bath resealing for Stockcross homes

Bath resealing at your home in Stockcross

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. We work on wet rooms, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most frequently call us about old sealant that looks dirty and water getting behind the bath or tray.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

What we’re called out for in Stockcross

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Sealant that is split or lifting

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How your room will be protected
  • Aftercare advice
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Choosing a repair company

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

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

Questions from Stockcross

How long does silicone take to cure?

We will give you the curing time, generally around a day.

How long will it take?

A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can landlords book you?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What bath resealing costs

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

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower

If you are in Stockcross and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

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

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
