How we handle bath resealing in Wiggins Hill

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. If you’re dealing with black spots in the silicone and an untidy old seal, we can help.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

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

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wiggins Hill use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

For anyone letting property in or around Wiggins Hill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Do you need bath resealing in Wiggins Hill?

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Stained silicone
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Black spots in the silicone

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Our hiring checklist

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Hidden water damage
  • A flexing bath

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Wiggins Hill

We charge the same across the UK, including Wiggins Hill. What changes the price is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Wiggins Hill questions

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Wiggins Hill?

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

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
