How we handle bath resealing in Brownhill

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. Our repair technicians work on baths, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are discoloured, yellow sealant and leaks at the edges.

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

10 questions to ask before you book

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a couple of hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Brownhill

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

Prices and what affects them

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

We price from photos 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, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

FAQs for Brownhill

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Blackburn with Darwen, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Are there extra charges for Brownhill?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How long does resealing take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

Do the materials smell?

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

Is resealing worth it?

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. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

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

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
