Bath resealing at your home in Swaton

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include gaps in the seal and discoloured, yellow sealant, in baths, basins & vanity units and wet rooms.

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

FAQs for Swaton

How long will it take?

A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

How long does silicone take to cure?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Are there extra charges for Swaton?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

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

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Landlord and trade work in Swaton

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Swaton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

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

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Why it’s worth resealing in Swaton

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why Swaton customers choose us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Work done at your home or business
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Most jobs done in one visit

See our full price list.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a couple of hours, including clearing up.

  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. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

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 without visiting.
