Bath Resealing in Calderdale

About bath resealing in Calderdale

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Typical jobs include unsealed corners and leaks at the edges, across wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and baths.

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  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.

Cost

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How we price bath resealing

You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Common problems we fix in Calderdale

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Common reasons people in Calderdale contact us are:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Why repair rather than replace?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right.

Questions to ask before booking

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Calderdale: your questions answered

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What happens after I send photos?

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