Bath resealing in Burton Salmon

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Bath resealing at your home in Burton Salmon

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We’re frequently asked to fix discoloured, yellow sealant and missing sealant behind the taps, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Unsealed corners
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

Our hiring checklist

Burton Salmon: your questions answered

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Leeds.

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your LS25 postcode.

Do you work in Burton Salmon?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Burton Salmon. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

What bath resealing costs

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

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Burton Salmon

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Hidden water damage

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Why it’s worth resealing in Burton Salmon

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
