Bath resealing at your home in Blubberhouses

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s mould you can’t clean out and old sealant that looks dirty, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What bath resealing costs

There’s no area surcharge for Blubberhouses. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match

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.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your LS21 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

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

Your questions about bath resealing in Blubberhouses

How long does resealing take?

Usually a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you quote from pictures?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you cover Blubberhouses?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Blubberhouses for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Air the room after use
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

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

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Do you need bath resealing in Blubberhouses?

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

The things customers typically mention when they call include:

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

10 questions to ask before booking

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
