Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Resealing in Waltham Chase: why it matters

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

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 will not last.

What bath resealing costs

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Common problems we fix in Waltham Chase

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

Common reasons people in Waltham Chase contact us are:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Damp near the bath
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
