Bath resealing in Tholomas Drove without replacing anything

Preparation is everything in a reseal: 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 work on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are silicone coming away from the tiles and unsealed corners.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Resealing in Tholomas Drove: why it matters

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

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

Take a look at our full price list.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Air the room after use
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Materials we work on in Tholomas Drove

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

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Baths

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

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

10 questions to ask before you book

Your questions about bath resealing in Tholomas Drove

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

How much does bath resealing cost in Tholomas Drove?

We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your PE13 postcode.

Do you charge for travel?

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Landlord and trade work in Tholomas Drove

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
