Signs you need bath resealing in Woolhampton

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Woolhampton: your questions answered

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

How long does silicone take to cure?

We’ll give you the curing time.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Landlord and trade work in Woolhampton

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
