Bath resealing at your home in Westwood Heath

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We are frequently asked to fix silicone coming away from the tiles and leaks at the edges, on baths, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Coventry.

Your questions about bath resealing in Westwood Heath

Are you accredited?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Westwood Heath.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Air the room after use

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A flexing bath
  • Hidden water damage

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

  • Unsealed corners

Choosing a repair company

The process

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

Why reseal now?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

What affects the price in Westwood Heath

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

If you’re in Westwood Heath and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
