Bath resealing for Breckles homes

Bath resealing at your home in Breckles

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. If you’re dealing with black spots in the silicone and gaps by the taps, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally around 24 hours.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Common questions in Breckles

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Usually after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Breckles and the rest of Norfolk. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

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

What does bath resealing cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Resealing in Breckles: why it matters

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

  • Damp near the bath

What to look for in a quote

  • What protection goes down before work starts

10 questions to ask before you book

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

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

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes about two hours for a bath in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can price the job without visiting.

Advice

What affects the price in Breckles

Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
