Trusted bath resealing in Thornham Parva

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Questions from Thornham Parva

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Thornham Parva?

Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do I have to be there?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Is there a guarantee?

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

Do you need bath resealing in Thornham Parva?

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Stained silicone
  • An untidy old seal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

Before you book anyone

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How changes to the job are handled

How to compare quotes

Landlord and trade work in Thornham Parva

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What bath resealing costs

There’s no charge for travel to Thornham Parva. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas

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 play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • The material, if you know it

If you are in Thornham Parva and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Take a look at our pricing.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

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