Trusted bath resealing in Stretton

Bath resealing in Stretton without replacing anything

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are stained silicone and damp near the bath.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Air the room after use
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes around two hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Signs you need bath resealing in Stretton

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Leaks at the edges
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How to care for the finish
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • If travel is included in the price

10 questions to ask before you book

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
