Bath resealing in Brayton, done in place

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Typical jobs include discoloured, yellow sealant and missing sealant behind the taps, on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and baths.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

For landlords and businesses

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

For anyone letting property in or around Brayton, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Why reseal now?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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 fails, we can still put it right.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Open a window after bathing

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

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Brayton: your questions answered

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

How long does silicone take to cure?

You will get the curing time from us, normally around a day.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

How long does a reseal take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

What bath resealing costs

We charge the same across the UK, including Brayton. What changes the price is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs

If you are in Brayton and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
