Bath resealing for Alburgh homes

Bath resealing in Alburgh without replacing anything

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. We regularly repair baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most often call us about water getting behind the bath or tray and black spots in the silicone.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Questions from Alburgh

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Norfolk.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Alburgh?

Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your IP20 postcode.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Air the room after use
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

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

What affects the price in Alburgh

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of

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

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

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

Materials we work on in Alburgh

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Wet rooms

10 questions to ask before booking

How it works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

Landlords, agents and businesses in Alburgh

If you manage property in Alburgh, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
