Bath resealing near Bescaby

How we handle bath resealing in Bescaby

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We work on basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are black spots in the silicone and stained silicone.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

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

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What bath resealing costs

We charge the same across the UK, including Bescaby. The price reflects:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Bescaby. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A photo taken from further back

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Your questions about bath resealing in Bescaby

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you work in Bescaby?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Bescaby and the rest of Leicestershire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes around two hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any 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, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
