Bath resealing in Cabus

Bath resealing in Cabus, done in place

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. If you’re dealing with gaps by the taps and black spots in the silicone, we can help, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Prices and what affects them

We charge the same across the UK, including Cabus. What changes the price is:

  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PR3 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  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. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

Repairs by material

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • A flexing bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Cabus

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

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

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

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Why it’s worth resealing in Cabus

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s 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 pictures, as it can add time.

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

Common questions in Cabus

Do you cover the entire of Lancashire?

All of Lancashire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

How long before I can shower?

Normally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
