Bath resealing near Waterham

About our bath resealing in Waterham

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Whether it’s gaps by the taps and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can usually put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes around two hours.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Is resealing worth it?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • We leave the room as we found it

Take a look at our prices page.

What bath resealing costs

Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Do you need bath resealing in Waterham?

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Gaps by the taps
  • An untidy old seal
  • Leaks at the edges

How to compare quotes

Waterham: your questions answered

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Normally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

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.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Air the room after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

What we can’t put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
