Bath resealing in Swanton Abbott

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Air the room after use
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.

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

What affects the price in Swanton Abbott

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a couple of hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

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. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Advice

Swanton Abbott: your questions answered

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Norfolk. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Repairs by material

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.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Why reseal now?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
