Bath resealing in Bay Horse

Bath resealing at your home in Bay Horse

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. Typical jobs include discoloured, yellow sealant and unsealed corners, in kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

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

What a repair can’t fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A flexing bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Your questions about bath resealing in Bay Horse

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

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

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

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

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes about two hours for a bath. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  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

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Signs you need bath resealing in Bay Horse

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • An untidy old seal
  • Unsealed corners
  • Mould you can’t clean out

Questions to ask before you book

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • When it can be used again
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

What bath resealing costs

There’s no area surcharge for Bay Horse. What changes the price is:

  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
