Bath resealing for Beech Lanes homes

How we price bath resealing

We don’t charge extra for travel to Beech Lanes. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Bath resealing in Beech Lanes, done in place

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We are often asked to fix black mould in the sealant and an untidy old seal, across wet rooms, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to around two hours.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice

Questions from Beech Lanes

Do you seal over the old sealant?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Do you work in Beech Lanes?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Beech Lanes from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Common problems we fix in Beech Lanes

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

What your quote should include

  • What prep work is covered
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Beech Lanes

If you manage property in Beech Lanes, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Open a window after bathing

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

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

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Movement in the bath or tray
