Book bath resealing in Swineford

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

Bath resealing at your home in Swineford

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Whether it’s unsealed corners and discoloured, yellow sealant, we can help.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

What affects the price in Swineford

We do not charge extra for travel to Swineford. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs

If you’re in Swineford and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Open a window after bathing

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

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Why it’s worth resealing in Swineford

Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Common questions in Swineford

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Normally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.

Are there extra charges for Swineford?

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

Can you quote from photos?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you cover the entire of South Gloucestershire?

All of South Gloucestershire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A flexing bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Swineford

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

When to call us in Swineford

Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Common reasons people in Swineford contact us are:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Unsealed corners
