Bath resealing near Stratfield Mortimer

Bath resealing in Stratfield Mortimer, done in place

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units, and people most often call us about silicone smeared on tiles and silicone coming away from the tiles.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Resealing in Stratfield Mortimer: why it matters

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. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stratfield Mortimer

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.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Repairs by material

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

What affects the price in Stratfield Mortimer

You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
