Bath resealing in Alderton

How we handle bath resealing in Alderton

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Common call-outs are for gaps by the taps and black mould in the sealant, in kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Alderton

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Alderton clients choose us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Let steam out after showers

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Do you need bath resealing in Alderton?

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

People usually call us when they notice something like this:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Damp near the bath
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Stained silicone

Before you book anyone

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How soon you can use it again
  • If travel is included in the price

Choosing a repair company

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Wet rooms
  • Baths
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units
