Bath resealing in Stowlangtoft

Bath resealing at your home in Stowlangtoft

All of the old sealant is cut out, 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 work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and baths, and the jobs we see most are stained silicone and a messy previous reseal.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

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

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hollow or loose tiles

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

Materials we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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 pictures.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Stowlangtoft questions

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do you work in Stowlangtoft?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Stowlangtoft. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What does bath resealing cost?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
