How we handle bath resealing in Causeway End

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Our technicians work on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are mould you can’t clean out and silicone smeared on tiles.

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

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Air the room after use
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep the joints dry

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

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What affects the price in Causeway End

There is no area surcharge for Causeway End. What changes the price is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  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. 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
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Your questions about bath resealing in Causeway End

How long will it take?

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

Do you cover Causeway End?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Causeway End from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

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.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Common problems we fix in Causeway End

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Unsealed corners

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What prep work is covered

How to compare quotes

What we cannot put right

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
