Trusted bath resealing in Broughton in Furness

How we handle bath resealing in Broughton in Furness

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. If you’re dealing with leaks at the edges and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can help, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Resealing in Broughton in Furness: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Common questions in Broughton in Furness

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

How long does silicone take to cure?

You will get the curing time from us.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can new silicone go over old?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Common problems we fix in Broughton in Furness

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

  • Unsealed corners
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Stained silicone
  • Leaks at the edges

Questions to ask before booking

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Choosing a repair company

What bath resealing costs

You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes about two hours for a bath. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access
