Bath resealing near Twywell

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

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

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Bath resealing in Twywell without replacing anything

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. We’re frequently asked to fix gaps by the taps and mould you can’t clean out, in wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures.

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

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

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

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What bath resealing costs

There’s no area surcharge for Twywell. The price reflects:

  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Common questions in Twywell

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Do you cover Twywell?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Twywell. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How long does silicone take to cure?

We will give you the curing time.

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

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Is resealing worth it?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Take a look at our prices page.

The process

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the area is dry

How to get a price

Advice

Common problems we fix in Twywell

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • An untidy old seal

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
