Bath resealing at your home in Troston

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Common call-outs are for mould you can’t clean out and stained silicone, across basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Why it’s worth resealing in Troston

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Open a window after bathing

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Troston

Letting agents frequently send us pictures 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.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes around two hours in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  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. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice

FAQs for Troston

Do you cover Troston?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Troston. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

How long before I can shower?

Usually after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hidden water damage

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

What bath resealing costs

You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

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

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

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