Bath resealing near Banbhaidh

Why it’s worth resealing in Banbhaidh

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Bath resealing in Banbhaidh without replacing anything

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Whether it’s silicone coming away from the tiles and stained silicone, we can typically put it right.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A photo taken from further back

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Questions from Banbhaidh

Do I need to be at home?

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

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Highland. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

What we are called out for in Banbhaidh

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Comparing quotes

  • How to look after the finish
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Hidden water damage

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Keep the joints dry

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
