Bath resealing in Woodlands

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

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

About our bath resealing in Woodlands

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s black mould in the sealant and an untidy old seal, we can generally put it right.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What we are called out for in Woodlands

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

Look out for any of the following:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Before booking anyone

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • When it can be used again
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Choosing a repair company

Resealing in Woodlands: why it matters

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • No extra charge for your area

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What bath resealing costs

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

  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Woodlands. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

If you’re in Woodlands and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Woodlands questions

Do you work in Woodlands?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Woodlands for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is it messy?

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

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.

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

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

Can new silicone go over old?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

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

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
