Bath resealing for West Somerton homes

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

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

How we handle bath resealing in West Somerton

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. If you’re dealing with gaps by the taps and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can help, on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Signs you need bath resealing in West Somerton

In time, even good sealant discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Stained silicone

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

West Somerton questions

How long does silicone take to cure?

You’ll get the curing time from us.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

What happens next?

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

What do you need from me?

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

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

When we would advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Use the extractor fan

Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

What bath resealing costs

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.
