Bath resealing for Trench Green homes

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Trench Green as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

About our bath resealing in Trench Green

We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops using mould-resistant silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours. We regularly repair wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units, and people most frequently call us about an untidy old seal and mould you can’t clean out.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What bath resealing costs

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

If you are in Trench Green and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

See our prices page.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  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

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Do you need bath resealing in Trench Green?

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Damp near the bath

FAQs for Trench Green

Do you cover Trench Green?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Trench Green from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Does someone need to be in?

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

How long does a reseal take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Use the extractor fan

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
