Trusted bath resealing in Wadesmill

About our bath resealing in Wadesmill

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are old sealant that looks dirty and water getting behind the bath or tray.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

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

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take around two hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access

Why it’s worth resealing in Wadesmill

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One price list for the entire UK

Read our prices page.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

Common questions in Wadesmill

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you cover the entire of Hertfordshire?

We cover the whole UK, including Wadesmill and the rest of Hertfordshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

How we price bath resealing

You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
