Bath resealing near Wardley

Bath resealing in Wardley without replacing anything

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. If you’re dealing with sealant that’s split or lifting and mould you can’t clean out, we can help, whatever the material.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Wardley, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Movement in the bath or tray

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

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Your questions about bath resealing in Wardley

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Wardley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

  • Nothing taken out or refitted

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Our hiring checklist

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

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
