Bath resealing in Clockmill

About our bath resealing in Clockmill

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. We’re frequently asked to fix gaps by the taps and gaps in the seal, on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Air the room after use
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

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.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

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

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

10 questions to ask before you book

Common questions in Clockmill

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Clockmill. Prices don’t change with location.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you work in Clockmill?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Clockmill and the rest of the Scottish Borders. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Do I have to be there?

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

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hollow or loose tiles

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

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, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What bath resealing costs

There is no charge for travel to Clockmill. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
