Bath resealing in Stone Copse, done in place

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. If you’re dealing with stained silicone and mould you can’t clean out, we can help, whatever the material.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Stone Copse questions

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Will there be a smell?

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

How much does bath resealing cost in Stone Copse?

We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

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

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across West Berkshire.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Choosing a repair company

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

What bath resealing costs

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Movement in the bath or tray
