Bath resealing for Worth homes

Bath resealing in Worth without replacing anything

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Our technicians work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are sealant that’s split or lifting and silicone smeared on tiles.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Landlord and trade work in Worth

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Common questions in Worth

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

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

Our hiring checklist

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for around two hours. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Air the room after use
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

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

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

What affects the price in Worth

There’s no area surcharge for Worth. What changes the price is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For a price in Worth, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Why it’s worth resealing in Worth

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Worth. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
