Bath resealing near Warden

Questions from Warden

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Can you quote from photos?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Do you come to Warden?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Warden. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Bath resealing at your home in Warden

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you are dealing with unsealed corners and leaks at the edges, we can normally put it right, on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What bath resealing costs

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

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

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Warden, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Common problems we fix in Warden

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Gaps by the taps

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

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

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

When we would advise against a repair

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

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