About our bath resealing in Woodside

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Whether it’s missing sealant behind the taps and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can help, on baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

When we would advise against a repair

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A flexing bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

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

Materials we work on in Woodside

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

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

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Do you need bath resealing in Woodside?

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

The things clients generally mention when they call are:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Common questions in Woodside

Do you seal over the old sealant?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Do you come to Woodside?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Woodside. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Dudley.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Prices and what affects them

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. 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.
