Bath resealing for Willingham Green homes

How we handle bath resealing in Willingham Green

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and people most frequently call us about a messy previous reseal and unsealed corners.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Questions from Willingham Green

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you cover Willingham Green?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Willingham Green from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Why reseal now?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. 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. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Common problems we fix in Willingham Green

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Unsealed corners
  • An untidy old seal
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Mould you can’t clean out

Before you book anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site

10 questions to ask before booking

The process

When we visit, 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 tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Open a window if you can
