Bath resealing in Byeastwood

How we handle bath resealing in Byeastwood

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are silicone coming away from the tiles and silicone smeared on tiles.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Avoid scraping the joints, 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.

Why it’s worth resealing in Byeastwood

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Byeastwood

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage

Common questions in Byeastwood

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Common problems we fix in Byeastwood

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

Customers usually contact us about:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • An untidy old seal
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Leaks at the edges

Before booking anyone

  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if they find more damage

10 questions to ask before booking

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Hidden water damage

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
