Bath resealing in Wortwell

When we’d advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hollow or loose tiles

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Bath resealing in Wortwell, done in place

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are leaks at the edges and missing sealant behind the taps.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Your questions about bath resealing in Wortwell

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Wortwell. Prices do not change with location.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Wortwell.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Common problems we fix in Wortwell

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Unsealed corners

Questions to ask before you book

10 questions to ask before booking

What bath resealing costs

We don’t charge extra for travel to Wortwell. The price comes down to:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Wortwell. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Wortwell, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

How it works

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wortwell

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Norfolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Air the room after use
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
