How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Air the room after use
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly 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 happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

Albrighton questions

What areas do you cover?

All of Shropshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Can you quote from photos?

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Landlord and trade work in Albrighton

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

What we’re called out for in Albrighton

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Sealant that is split or lifting

What to look for in a quote

  • When it can be used again
  • What prep work is covered

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Why it’s worth resealing in Albrighton

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
