Why it’s worth resealing in West Town

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • No need to remove anything
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

How we handle bath resealing in West Town

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s water getting behind the bath or tray and silicone smeared on tiles, we can help.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in West Town as everywhere else we work.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Your questions about bath resealing in West Town

Can new silicone go over old?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Do you cover West Town?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to West Town and the rest of Hampshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Are there extra charges for West Town?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

How long will it take?

Typically a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in West Town.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

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

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

If you manage property in West Town, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Do you need bath resealing in West Town?

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Aftercare advice

Our hiring checklist

How we price bath resealing

You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
