How we handle bath resealing in Aylesby

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. If you are dealing with silicone smeared on tiles and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can help.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Air the room after use
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

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

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

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

Prices and what affects them

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Do you need bath resealing in Aylesby?

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • An untidy old seal

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Who turns up on the day

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Common questions in Aylesby

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What does bath resealing cost?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Aylesby and the rest of North East Lincolnshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Why reseal now?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, 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 you book.
