Bath resealing in Anstey

Signs you need bath resealing in Anstey

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

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • An untidy old seal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Mould you can’t clean out

Our hiring checklist

Bath resealing at your home in Anstey

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s leaks at the edges and old sealant that looks dirty, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

FAQs for Anstey

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.

Do you cover Anstey?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Anstey and the rest of Leicestershire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

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

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Leicestershire.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes around two hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Anstey, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Anstey

For anyone letting property in or around Anstey, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Different materials, different repairs

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, with the joint fully dried first.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

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