Bath resealing in Westcott, done in place

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We work on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are discoloured, yellow sealant and mould you can’t clean out.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take around two hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hidden water damage

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

Materials we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Your questions about bath resealing in Westcott

How long does resealing take?

Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

What areas do you cover?

All of Buckinghamshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can you quote from photos?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

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

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is resealing worth it?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Prices and what affects them

We don’t charge extra for travel to Westcott. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Signs you need bath resealing in Westcott

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Damp near the bath
  • Unsealed corners
  • Stained silicone

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What protection goes down before work starts
