Bath resealing in Wilney Green

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Bath resealing in Wilney Green without replacing anything

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you’re dealing with leaks at the edges and unsealed corners, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Common questions in Wilney Green

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your IP22 postcode.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wilney Green use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What bath resealing costs

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

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.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, tidy-up included.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
