Bath resealing in Woodford Wells without replacing anything

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Whether it’s sealant that’s split or lifting and a messy previous reseal, we can normally put it right.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it 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

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What we are called out for in Woodford Wells

Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Damp near the bath
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

How to look after the repair

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

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.

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

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

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

Materials we repair

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

What affects the price in Woodford Wells

You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Woodford Wells. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

We price from pictures so you do not 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, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
