Bath resealing in Swanton Morley

Do you need bath resealing in Swanton Morley?

Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Common reasons people in Swanton Morley contact us are:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Stained silicone
  • Gaps by the taps

What to look for in a quote

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

Bath resealing at your home in Swanton Morley

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Our repair technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and people most often call us about black spots in the silicone and gaps in the seal.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Common questions in Swanton Morley

Do you come to Swanton Morley?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Swanton Morley and the rest of Norfolk. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Will it make a mess?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  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. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

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

Landlord and trade work in Swanton Morley

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

For anyone letting property in or around Swanton Morley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

What bath resealing costs

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
