Trusted bath resealing in Upper Heyford

Bath resealing in Upper Heyford, done in place

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, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. If you are dealing with mould you can’t clean out and missing sealant behind the taps, we can help, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Upper Heyford

For anyone letting property in or around Upper Heyford, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • A flexing bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

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 often lifts.

FAQs for Upper Heyford

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Usually because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

Do you come to Upper Heyford?

We do. We send a technician to Upper Heyford for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you cover the whole of Northamptonshire?

Everywhere in the UK, Upper Heyford included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

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

When to call us in Upper Heyford

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Stained silicone
  • Gaps in the seal

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Upper Heyford

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Natural light rather than flash

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your NN7 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Is resealing worth it?

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. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
