Bath resealing near Sutton

Why it’s worth resealing in Sutton

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • No need to remove anything
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

About our bath resealing in Sutton

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed using mould-resistant silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. If you are dealing with a messy previous reseal and damp near the bath, we can normally put it right, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

The process

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sutton

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

When to call us in Sutton

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

The things customers generally mention when they call are:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Black spots in the silicone

How to compare quotes

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

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

Baths

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

Your questions about bath resealing in Sutton

How long will it take?

Generally a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of St Helens. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is it messy?

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

Why does mould come back so fast?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
