Book bath resealing in Boston Spa

Do you need bath resealing in Boston Spa?

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Damp near the bath

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

How to compare quotes

Bath resealing in Boston Spa without replacing anything

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Typical jobs include silicone coming away from the tiles and gaps by the taps, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Boston Spa as everywhere else we work.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Honest limits

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

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What bath resealing costs

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

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Landlord and trade work in Boston Spa

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, 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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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

Boston Spa questions

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

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

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

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

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
