Bath resealing near Upper Largo

Bath resealing in Upper Largo, done in place

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you are dealing with mould you can’t clean out and missing sealant behind the taps, we can help.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Upper Largo and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Open a window after bathing

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Common questions in Upper Largo

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Are there extra charges for Upper Largo?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Do you cover Upper Largo?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Baths

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

Resealing in Upper Largo: why it matters

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Work done at your home or business
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Read our prices page.

What we cannot put right

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A flexing bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Do you need bath resealing in Upper Largo?

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Unsealed corners
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Mould you cannot clean out

  • Aftercare advice
  • How your room will be protected
  • How the colour is matched
