Bath resealing for Bushton homes

Bath resealing in Bushton without replacing anything

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s leaks at the edges and discoloured, yellow sealant, we can help, whatever the material.

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

What bath resealing costs

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

If you’re in Bushton and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Questions from Bushton

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Normally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are there extra charges for Bushton?

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

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

When to call us in Bushton

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Questions to ask before booking

  • What preparation is included
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Resealing in Bushton: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A flexing bath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Bushton

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

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Air the room after use

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
