Bath resealing for Whitley Heath homes

Bath resealing at your home in Whitley Heath

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed using mould-resistant silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. We’re frequently asked to fix missing sealant behind the taps and discoloured, yellow sealant, in kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Resealing in Whitley Heath: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Questions from Whitley Heath

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How much does bath resealing cost in Whitley Heath?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Whitley Heath included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Do you need bath resealing in Whitley Heath?

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the price covers travel

10 questions to ask before you book

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a couple of hours, including clearing up.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your ST21 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Prices and what affects them

You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

  • Hidden water damage
  • A flexing bath

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
