Bath resealing for Welborne homes

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Movement in the bath or tray

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

About our bath resealing in Welborne

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s unsealed corners and mould you can’t clean out, we can usually put it right.

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Welborne

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

For anyone letting property in or around Welborne, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Your questions about bath resealing in Welborne

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.

Does someone need to be in?

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

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Hampshire.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Do you need bath resealing in Welborne?

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

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Stained silicone

What your quote should include

  • How long it needs to cure
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take around two hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  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. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What affects the price in Welborne

We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For a price in Welborne, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
