Bath resealing for Stocks Green homes

For landlords and businesses

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.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How we handle bath resealing in Stocks Green

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are black spots in the silicone and discoloured, yellow sealant.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Stocks Green as everywhere else we work.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

What affects the price in Stocks Green

Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Most clients in Stocks Green get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

What we are called out for in Stocks Green

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

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Stained silicone
  • Leaks at the edges

Comparing quotes

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Aftercare advice

Our hiring checklist

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Stocks Green: your questions answered

Will you leave a mess?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Are there extra charges for Stocks Green?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

How long does resealing take?

Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

How long before I can shower?

Usually after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
