How we handle bath resealing in Breedon on the Hill

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. We’re often asked to fix mould you can’t clean out and discoloured, yellow sealant, on shower trays & enclosures, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Breedon on the Hill as everywhere else we work.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

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.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What we are called out for in Breedon on the Hill

In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Stained silicone
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Sealant that is split or lifting

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Breedon on the Hill, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

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

The process

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take around two hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Related advice

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Derbyshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Breedon on the Hill questions

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
