Trusted bath resealing in Clayton

How we handle bath resealing in Clayton

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Our technicians work on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are water getting behind the bath or tray and missing sealant behind the taps.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, it’s worth having it done properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What affects the price in Clayton

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Most clients in Clayton get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Why reseal now?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Common questions in Clayton

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Clayton?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

What areas do you cover?

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

What a repair can’t fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A flexing bath

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

Materials we repair

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

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a couple of hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
