What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for around two hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  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. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the damage

Advice

Bath resealing in Bridge of Tilt without replacing anything

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. If you are dealing with a messy previous reseal and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can typically put it right, on basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Bridge of Tilt questions

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

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.

Do you cover Bridge of Tilt?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Bridge of Tilt from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

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

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

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

When to call us in Bridge of Tilt

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Stained silicone
  • Black mould in the sealant

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bridge of Tilt

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

What bath resealing costs

We do not charge extra for travel to Bridge of Tilt. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
