Bath resealing in Broompark

How we handle bath resealing in Broompark

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s stained silicone and mould you can’t clean out, we can generally put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How we price bath resealing

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas

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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Common problems we fix in Broompark

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

Before you book anyone

  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

Landlords, agents and businesses in Broompark

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Broompark use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Hidden water damage

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

Resealing in Broompark: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why Broompark clients choose us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

See our full price list.

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a couple of hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
