How we handle bath resealing in Veldo

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed using mould-resistant silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and common reasons people get in touch are old sealant that looks dirty and gaps in the seal.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Veldo as everywhere else we work.

Landlord and trade work in Veldo

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What affects the price in Veldo

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

When to call us in Veldo

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • An untidy old seal
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

What to look for in a quote

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

10 questions to ask before you book

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Open a window after bathing

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Your questions about bath resealing in Veldo

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

What does bath resealing cost?

We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Do you charge for travel?

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

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Generally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How long does a reseal take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
