Bath resealing for Briestfield homes

Bath resealing at your home in Briestfield

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are discoloured, yellow sealant and damp near the bath.

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

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

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

When to call us in Briestfield

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Gaps by the taps

Prices and what affects them

You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Briestfield as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Kirklees and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, then guarantee it for a year.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Let steam out after showers

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
