Bath resealing in West Wick

About our bath resealing in West Wick

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We’re frequently asked to fix water getting behind the bath or tray and black spots in the silicone, on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and baths.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

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

What we work on

West Wick questions

How much does bath resealing cost in West Wick?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BS24 postcode.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

How long does silicone take to cure?

We will give you the curing time.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do you work in West Wick?

We do. We send a technician to West Wick for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

What bath resealing costs

We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

For a price in West Wick, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

When to call us in West Wick

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Gaps by the taps

Questions to ask before booking

  • How your room will be protected
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No extra charge for your area
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It typically takes around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
