How we handle bath resealing in Ballymena

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths, and common reasons people get in touch are missing sealant behind the taps and damp near the bath.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Wet rooms
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Baths
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks

Do you need bath resealing in Ballymena?

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Gaps in the seal

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
