Bath resealing in Upper Kingston without replacing anything

We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops using mould-resistant silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. Our repair technicians work on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about missing sealant behind the taps and a messy previous reseal.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Upper Kingston and across Hampshire.

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a couple of hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Questions from Upper Kingston

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How long before I can shower?

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

Does someone need to be in?

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

Do you come to Upper Kingston?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Upper Kingston for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Why does mould come back so fast?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

How we price bath resealing

We charge the same across the UK, including Upper Kingston. The price reflects:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

When we’d advise against a repair

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally around 24 hours.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Why it’s worth resealing in Upper Kingston

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Common problems we fix in Upper Kingston

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:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Unsealed corners

What your quote should include

  • How to care for the finish
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What preparation is included
