How we handle bath resealing in Bicker Bar

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are old sealant that looks dirty and silicone smeared on tiles.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What affects the price in Bicker Bar

Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Bicker Bar: your questions answered

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

How long does silicone take to cure?

We will give you the curing time, generally around a day.

Are there extra charges for Bicker Bar?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

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

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

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

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Resealing in Bicker Bar: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a couple of hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
