Bath resealing near Swift's Green

Bath resealing at your home in Swift's Green

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We’re frequently asked to fix a messy previous reseal and water getting behind the bath or tray, on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Signs you need bath resealing in Swift's Green

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Unsealed corners
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Our hiring checklist

How it works

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. Allow around two hours.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Kent and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Let steam out after showers

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

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • No need to remove anything
