Bath resealing for Walderslade homes

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

How we handle bath resealing in Walderslade

We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops. Most jobs take a couple of hours, plus curing time. Common call-outs are for stained silicone and an untidy old seal, in kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and wet rooms.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Why it’s worth resealing in Walderslade

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Read our pricing.

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your ME5 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

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

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Movement in the bath or tray

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

Materials we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
