Bath resealing in Wotter

About our bath resealing in Wotter

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. We are often asked to fix old sealant that looks dirty and silicone coming away from the tiles, across wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

How it works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take around two hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

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

Common problems we fix in Wotter

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • An untidy old seal

10 questions to ask before booking

Wotter: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

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

How long will it take?

A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Do you come to Wotter?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Wotter from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Why it’s worth resealing in Wotter

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Landlord and trade work in Wotter

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Keep the joints dry

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
