Resealing in Brightholmlee: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Bath resealing in Brightholmlee, done in place

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Typical jobs include leaks at the edges and old sealant that looks dirty, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Brightholmlee

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Brightholmlee as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

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, for the same reason.

Common questions in Brightholmlee

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

How soon can you come?

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

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

What we are called out for in Brightholmlee

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Leaks at the edges

Before booking anyone

  • Who turns up on the day
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How changes to the job are handled

Our hiring checklist

What bath resealing costs

We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Brightholmlee, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes around two hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
