Landlord and trade work in Winton

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Bournemouth and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

How we handle bath resealing in Winton

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Common call-outs are for stained silicone and leaks at the edges, in baths, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Resealing in Winton: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why Winton customers choose us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

How we price bath resealing

We charge the same across the UK, including Winton. The price reflects:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Keep the joints dry

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hidden water damage
  • A flexing bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

FAQs for Winton

Is my repair covered?

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

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

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

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
