Trusted bath resealing in Aldham

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No extra charge for your area

Aldham questions

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

How much does bath resealing cost in Aldham?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Air the room after use

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Landlord and trade work in Aldham

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Signs you need bath resealing in Aldham

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Gaps by the taps

How to compare quotes

How we price bath resealing

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Aldham. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

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

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

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

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  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. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
