Bath resealing for Widley homes

About our bath resealing in Widley

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Typical jobs include missing sealant behind the taps and mould you can’t clean out, in baths, basins & vanity units and wet rooms.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Widley

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Keep the joints dry

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.

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

When to call us in Widley

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Unsealed corners
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

Your questions about bath resealing in Widley

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you cover Widley?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Widley for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What we cannot put right

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Is resealing worth it?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

What affects the price in Widley

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
