Bath resealing at your home in Wolverstone

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Our technicians work on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths, and the jobs we see most are an untidy old seal and mould you can’t clean out.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How we price bath resealing

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

  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit

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.

Quotes from your photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Common problems we fix in Wolverstone

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Stained silicone
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Black mould in the sealant

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How to look after the finish
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for around two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Common questions in Wolverstone

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Do you come to Wolverstone?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Wolverstone from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Generally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

When can you do it?

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

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Wolverstone?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hidden water damage
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Repairs by material

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, so the joint is at its widest.
