Need bath resealing in Wednesbury?

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

How we handle bath resealing in Wednesbury

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you’re dealing with black spots in the silicone and unsealed corners, we can help, on wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Wednesbury: your questions answered

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

How soon can you come?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Do you cover the whole of Sandwell?

All of Sandwell, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Wednesbury?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What we are called out for in Wednesbury

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Common reasons people in Wednesbury contact us include:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wednesbury as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Prices and what affects them

Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Air the room after use

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

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Hidden water damage

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
