Bath resealing for Sywell homes

About our bath resealing in Sywell

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Whether it’s gaps in the seal and old sealant that looks dirty, we can help, whatever the material.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northamptonshire.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Air the room after use
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Keep the joints dry

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

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

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, so the joint is at its widest.

Questions from Sywell

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Sywell is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Are there extra charges for Sywell?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Landlord and trade work in Sywell

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

What affects the price in Sywell

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What we are called out for in Sywell

Common reasons people in Sywell contact us are:

  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Unsealed corners
  • An untidy old seal
  • Leaks at the edges

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What protection goes down before work starts
