Bath resealing at your home in White City

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Typical jobs include sealant that’s split or lifting and missing sealant behind the taps, in shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and wet rooms.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Is resealing worth it?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for White City. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why White City clients choose us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Repairs by material

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

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

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hidden water damage

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Dry the seal after bathing

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

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

Signs you need bath resealing in White City

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Damp near the bath
  • An untidy old seal
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

If you manage property in White City, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take around two hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Your questions about bath resealing in White City

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

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

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
