Trusted bath resealing in Warninglid

Bath resealing at your home in Warninglid

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Our technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and common reasons people contact us are unsealed corners and sealant that’s split or lifting.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in West Sussex.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Warninglid

  • Baths
  • Basins & vanity units

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Warninglid questions

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Can new silicone go over old?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What affects the price in Warninglid

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any details about the material

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Landlord and trade work in Warninglid

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

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

Common problems we fix in Warninglid

Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Stained silicone
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again

10 questions to ask before booking

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access
