Bath resealing at your home in Baretrees

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Whether it’s discoloured, yellow sealant and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can typically put it right, on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths alike.

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Baretrees

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Baretrees use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Your questions about bath resealing in Baretrees

Do I need to be at home?

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

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Do you cover the whole of Oldham?

Everywhere in the UK, Baretrees included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Repairs by material

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Do you need bath resealing in Baretrees?

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

Before you book anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How your room will be protected
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

How we price bath resealing

Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Baretrees. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can price the job without visiting.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

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. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A fixed quote before booking

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
