Bath resealing for Ansty homes

How we handle bath resealing in Ansty

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. We regularly repair wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are stained silicone and water getting behind the bath or tray.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Your questions about bath resealing in Ansty

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?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

How long does a reseal take?

A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Is it messy?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Why it’s worth resealing in Ansty

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. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Everything repaired in place

Signs you need bath resealing in Ansty

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

People typically call us after spotting something like this:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Damp near the bath
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Black spots in the silicone

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether they match the colour on site

How to compare quotes

How we price bath resealing

Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

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

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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Use the extractor fan

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ansty as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to around two hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

For a price in Ansty, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
