Trusted bath resealing in Westwood

Bath resealing in Westwood, done in place

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Typical jobs include black mould in the sealant and silicone smeared on tiles, across kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.

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

Westwood questions

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Do you come to Westwood?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Westwood. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Westwood is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

How long does silicone take to cure?

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a couple of hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

10 questions to ask before you book

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

What affects the price in Westwood

Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can price the job without visiting.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
