Book bath resealing in Wytham

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Bath resealing in Wytham, done in place

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Common call-outs are for water getting behind the bath or tray and an untidy old seal, in wet rooms, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

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

Why reseal now?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We leave the room as we found it

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • A flexing bath
  • Hidden water damage
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

Your questions about bath resealing in Wytham

Can you quote from pictures?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

How much does bath resealing cost in Wytham?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Generally because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with 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

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
