Bath resealing in Westhay 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. Our technicians work on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are a messy previous reseal and discoloured, yellow sealant.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Prices and what affects them

We don’t charge extra for travel to Westhay. The price comes down to:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish

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 are paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for around two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Let steam out after showers

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

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

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

Westhay questions

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Westhay?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

How long before I can shower?

We will give you the curing time, normally around a day.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

What we’re called out for in Westhay

In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Damp near the bath

What to look for in a quote

  • If travel is included in the price
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Movement in the bath or tray
