Bath resealing at your home in Upper Woolhampton

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Typical jobs include mould you can’t clean out and silicone coming away from the tiles, in shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and baths.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Upper Woolhampton and across West Berkshire.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes around two hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Related advice

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Resealing in Upper Woolhampton: 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 usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Common questions in Upper Woolhampton

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How long does silicone take to cure?

We will give you the curing time, generally around a day.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

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.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Are there extra charges for Upper Woolhampton?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
