  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Black mould in the sealant

Choosing a repair company

About our bath resealing in Woodmancote

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and people most often call us about discoloured, yellow sealant and damp near the bath.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Questions from Woodmancote

How long will it take?

A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

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

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Resealing in Woodmancote: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

What bath resealing costs

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Woodmancote

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a couple of hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
