Bath resealing in West Wratting without replacing anything

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. We’re frequently asked to fix an untidy old seal and gaps in the seal, in baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Air the room after use
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Signs you need bath resealing in West Wratting

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Stained silicone
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • An untidy old seal

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your CB21 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

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.

Shower trays

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

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

The process

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
