Book bath resealing in Aiskew

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Bath resealing at your home in Aiskew

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. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about mould you can’t clean out and water getting behind the bath or tray.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Why reseal now?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Do you need bath resealing in Aiskew?

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Unsealed corners
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Black mould in the sealant

Questions to ask before booking

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Air the room after use
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Use the extractor fan

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.

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

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

For anyone letting property in or around Aiskew, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

The process

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

Your questions about bath resealing in Aiskew

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

How long before I can shower?

Normally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Aiskew.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Aiskew

  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Wet rooms

What bath resealing costs

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it

Most customers in Aiskew get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
