Trusted bath resealing in Wimbledon Chase

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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

Bath resealing in Wimbledon Chase without replacing anything

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Our repair technicians work on baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are discoloured, yellow sealant and a messy previous reseal.

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

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • A flexing bath
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

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

Materials we repair

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

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Use the extractor fan

Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

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.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take around two hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Why it’s worth resealing in Wimbledon Chase

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Wimbledon Chase questions

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Do you come to Wimbledon Chase?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Wimbledon Chase from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

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.
