Trusted bath resealing in Wayford Bridge

Bath resealing at your home in Wayford Bridge

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. If you’re dealing with silicone smeared on tiles and mould you can’t clean out, we can help.

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

FAQs for Wayford Bridge

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

How long does silicone take to cure?

Typically after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Wayford Bridge and the rest of Norfolk. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you quote from photos?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

When to call us in Wayford Bridge

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Stained silicone
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting

Before booking anyone

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Open a window after bathing

Don’t 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. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Wayford Bridge

For anyone letting property in or around Wayford Bridge, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Is resealing worth it?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Prices and what affects them

We charge the same across the UK, including Wayford Bridge. The price reflects:

  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

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 often lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
