About our bath resealing in West Town

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. If you are dealing with water getting behind the bath or tray and old sealant that looks dirty, we can normally put it right.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Landlords, agents and businesses in West Town

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Do you need bath resealing in West Town?

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Stained silicone
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Mould you can’t clean out

Before booking anyone

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Who turns up on the day
  • If travel is included in the price

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Open a window after bathing

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Resealing in West Town: why it matters

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • No need to remove anything
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Common questions in West Town

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.

Do you cover West Town?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to West Town. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take around two hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
