Bath resealing in Bessacarr

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Bath resealing in Bessacarr without replacing anything

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed using mould-resistant silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours. Our repair technicians work on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most frequently call us about silicone coming away from the tiles and mould you can’t clean out.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • No extra charge for your area
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Do you need bath resealing in Bessacarr?

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

The things clients generally mention when they call are:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

Comparing quotes

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What prep work is covered

Our hiring checklist

When we’d advise against a repair

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Baths
  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Basins & vanity units

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

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

Bessacarr questions

How much does bath resealing cost in Bessacarr?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

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

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. Baths are filled 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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
