Bath resealing in Clipstone without replacing anything

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they keep water out. If you are dealing with gaps by the taps and old sealant that looks dirty, we can help.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why Clipstone clients choose us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • No extra charge for your area
  • No need to remove anything

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Clipstone use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Signs you need bath resealing in Clipstone

Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Damp near the bath
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Who turns up on the day
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

Clipstone questions

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

How long does a reseal take?

Usually a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What bath resealing costs

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Compared with replacing, 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.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

If you are in Clipstone and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

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

Materials we work on in Clipstone

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

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for around two hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
