Bath resealing near Bickershaw

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Bath resealing in Bickershaw without replacing anything

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Whether it’s old sealant that looks dirty and a messy previous reseal, we can help, whatever the material.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes around two hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Why reseal now?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Why Bickershaw customers choose us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • No need to remove anything
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Air the room after use
  • Store bottles on a shelf

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

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Common questions in Bickershaw

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Are there extra charges for Bickershaw?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

We’ll give you the curing time.

Can you price it without visiting?
