About our bath resealing in Wesley End

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and the jobs we see most are a messy previous reseal and leaks at the edges.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Wesley End and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Air the room after use
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

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

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Resealing in Wesley End: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Wesley End questions

Do I have to be there?

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

Are you accredited?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Prices and what affects them

There’s no charge for travel to Wesley End. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your CO9 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Signs you need bath resealing in Wesley End

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Black spots in the silicone

Questions to ask before booking

  • What prep work is covered
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who will actually do the work

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
