Bath resealing in Wattlesborough Heath

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Bath resealing at your home in Wattlesborough Heath

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Typical jobs include black mould in the sealant and silicone coming away from the tiles, on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wattlesborough Heath

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

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

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • No need to remove anything
  • One price list for the whole UK

How we price bath resealing

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back

Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your SY5 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Wattlesborough Heath questions

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Can new silicone go over old?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Are you accredited?

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