10 questions to ask before booking

Bath resealing in Ugley without replacing anything

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed using mould-resistant silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are water getting behind the bath or tray and black spots in the silicone.

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

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ugley as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

For anyone letting property in or around Ugley, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes about two hours for a bath. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ugley questions

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

We will give you the curing time.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

How much does bath resealing cost in Ugley?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Open a window after bathing

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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, for the same reason.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

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.
