Bath resealing in West Preston without replacing anything

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they keep water out. If you are dealing with black mould in the sealant and stained silicone, we can usually put it right.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in West Preston and across West Sussex.

When to call us in West Preston

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

Clients typically contact us about:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Leaks at the edges

  • Stained silicone

Choosing a repair company

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • A flexing bath
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Resealing in West Preston: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • No extra charge for your area
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Questions from West Preston

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Do I have to be there?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you cover West Preston?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to West Preston for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Are there extra charges for West Preston?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

How long does a reseal take?

A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

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

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How it works

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Prices and what affects them

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • The material

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for West Preston. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your BN16 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
