Resealing in Berrick Salome: why it matters

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

What you get with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Work done at your home or business

Bath resealing in Berrick Salome, done in place

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. If you are dealing with silicone coming away from the tiles and mould you can’t clean out, we can help, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for about two hours for a bath. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  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. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

Signs you need bath resealing in Berrick Salome

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

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Stained silicone
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Damp near the bath

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

If you manage property in Berrick Salome, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

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

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

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

How we price bath resealing

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Berrick Salome questions

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
