Trusted bath resealing in Sutton Bingham

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

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

Surfaces we repair

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

About our bath resealing in Sutton Bingham

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for a messy previous reseal and mould you can’t clean out, on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Questions from Sutton Bingham

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Somerset, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

How long before I can shower?

We will give you the curing time, normally around a day.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

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

Is resealing worth it?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How we price bath resealing

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
