Bath resealing near Anlaby Common

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.

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

Bath resealing at your home in Anlaby Common

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Typical jobs include sealant that’s split or lifting and damp near the bath, across wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Landlord and trade work in Anlaby Common

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Anlaby Common as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What bath resealing costs

Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

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.

Baths

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

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Anlaby Common questions

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

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

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you come to Anlaby Common?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Anlaby Common. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How long does silicone take to cure?

We’ll give you the curing time, generally around a day.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
