How we handle bath resealing in Coates

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. If you’re dealing with black spots in the silicone and damp near the bath, we can help, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Landlord and trade work in Coates

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Coates as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

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 does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Air the room after use
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Give the seal a regular clean

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

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

How we price bath resealing

We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match

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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

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

Questions from Coates

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time, generally around a day.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How the visit works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found 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. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Why it’s worth resealing in Coates

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
