How we handle bath resealing in Trowse Newton

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. Our technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are black mould in the sealant and water getting behind the bath or tray.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

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

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hidden water damage
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Signs you need bath resealing in Trowse Newton

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Damp near the bath
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What prep work is covered
  • How your room will be protected

How to compare quotes

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes around two hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.

Why book with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

Your questions about bath resealing in Trowse Newton

Are there extra charges for Trowse Newton?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do I have to be there?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

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

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
