Bath resealing for Arthington homes

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Shower trays

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

Bath resealing in Arthington without replacing anything

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. Our repair technicians work on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and common reasons people get in touch are missing sealant behind the taps and an untidy old seal.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

There’s 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 come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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

Your questions about bath resealing in Arthington

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Do you come to Arthington?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How we price bath resealing

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Use the extractor fan

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

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

Resealing in Arthington: why it matters

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

See our pricing.

  • An untidy old seal
  • Leaks at the edges

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
