Bath resealing near Wheddon Cross

Bath resealing in Wheddon Cross without replacing anything

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you’re dealing with unsealed corners and damp near the bath, we can typically put it right, on basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms alike.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Is resealing worth it?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Work done at your home or business
  • A fixed quote before booking

Read our prices page.

How we price bath resealing

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Where you are, by postcode

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Common questions in Wheddon Cross

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you cover the whole of Somerset?

The whole UK, including all of Somerset. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

How long will it take?

A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TA24 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

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

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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