Need bath resealing in Wootton?

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Air the room after use
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Bath resealing in Wootton without replacing anything

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are discoloured, yellow sealant and sealant that’s split or lifting.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Wootton: your questions answered

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.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time, generally around a day.

Repairs by material

Baths

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

Shower trays

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

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wootton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

When to call us in Wootton

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Most people contact us after spotting something like this:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

What your quote should include

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price covers travel

10 questions to ask before booking

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A flexing bath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

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.

What bath resealing costs

You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Wootton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a couple of hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
