Bath resealing in Weston Otmoor

Weston Otmoor: your questions answered

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

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.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Normally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

About our bath resealing in Weston Otmoor

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We are frequently asked to fix silicone smeared on tiles and old sealant that looks dirty, on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What affects the price in Weston Otmoor

You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Weston Otmoor. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally around 24 hours.

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

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
