Bath resealing in Walpole without replacing anything

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We’re frequently asked to fix water getting behind the bath or tray and mould you can’t clean out, on basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

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

What we work on

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

Do you need bath resealing in Walpole?

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

Questions to ask before booking

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How long it needs to cure

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Resealing in Walpole: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why Walpole customers choose us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We leave the room as we found it

Walpole: your questions answered

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Walpole.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. 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 protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
