Bath resealing for Bramcote Hills homes

How we handle bath resealing in Bramcote Hills

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Our technicians work on wet rooms, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are mould you can’t clean out and leaks at the edges.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Bramcote Hills and across Nottingham.

Repairs by material

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

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

Signs you need bath resealing in Bramcote Hills

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Gaps by the taps
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Mould you can’t clean out

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What prep work is covered

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Air the room after use
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We do not 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.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  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 run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Common questions in Bramcote Hills

How long does a reseal take?

Typically a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Bramcote Hills and the rest of Nottingham. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Generally because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Honest limits

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

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Wet rooms
  • Baths
