Bath resealing near Swafield

Bath resealing in Swafield, done in place

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Our technicians work on baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most often call us about sealant that’s split or lifting and gaps by the taps.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Why reseal now?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Swafield clients choose us

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What affects the price in Swafield

There is no charge for travel to Swafield. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Air the room after use
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Keep bottles off the joints

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

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

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Swafield

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Swafield as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Questions from Swafield

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Swafield.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

How long does silicone take to cure?

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

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, so Swafield is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Normally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do I have to be there?

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

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hidden water damage

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