Trusted bath resealing in Westergate

Bath resealing at your home in Westergate

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Whether it’s gaps by the taps and black spots in the silicone, we can normally put it right, on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

Advice

Why it’s worth resealing in Westergate

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One visit for most repairs

Read our pricing.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Open a window after bathing

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

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

Questions from Westergate

How long does a reseal take?

A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you cover Westergate?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Westergate and the rest of West Sussex. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

What bath resealing costs

We charge the same across the UK, including Westergate. What changes the price is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas

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

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

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

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

What we work on

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

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Westergate use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
