Bath resealing near Woodlands

About our bath resealing in Woodlands

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. Whether it’s unsealed corners and leaks at the edges, we can help, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Woodlands

What we are called out for in Woodlands

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

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Our hiring checklist

Woodlands: your questions answered

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Woodlands included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

How long before I can shower?

We will give you the curing time.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Do you cover Woodlands?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Dry the seal after bathing

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

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Woodlands use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow around two hours.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  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. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access

What affects the price in Woodlands

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

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, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
