Choosing a repair company

Bath resealing in Wansford without replacing anything

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. If you are dealing with sealant that’s split or lifting and leaks at the edges, we can generally put it right.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Use the extractor fan

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

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Common questions in Wansford

Are there extra charges for Wansford?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

How long before I can shower?

You’ll get the curing time from us, normally around a day.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

If you manage property in Wansford, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

What bath resealing costs

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

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed price

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Most clients in Wansford get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Why reseal now?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why Wansford clients choose us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One price list for the entire UK

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price
