Bath resealing near Wishanger Common

Repairs by material

Shower trays

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

Baths

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

Bath resealing in Wishanger Common, done in place

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We’re frequently asked to fix damp near the bath and black spots in the silicone, on baths, basins & vanity units and wet rooms.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A picture taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Signs you need bath resealing in Wishanger Common

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Stained silicone
  • An untidy old seal
  • Unsealed corners

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Questions from Wishanger Common

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

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

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

The process

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for around two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price
