Trusted bath resealing in Wollaston

Bath resealing at your home in Wollaston

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for mould you can’t clean out and missing sealant behind the taps, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How we price bath resealing

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What we are called out for in Wollaston

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Unsealed corners
  • Black mould in the sealant

What to look for in a quote

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How to care for the finish
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take around two hours, including clearing up.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the area is dry

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Questions from Wollaston

How long does silicone take to cure?

Typically after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How long will it take?

Generally a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Do you work in Wollaston?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Wollaston for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Why it’s worth resealing in Wollaston

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

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

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
