Book bath resealing in Coldstream

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Bath resealing in Coldstream, done in place

We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are sealant that’s split or lifting and old sealant that looks dirty.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

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

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What affects the price in Coldstream

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Resealing in Coldstream: why it matters

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

See our prices page.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes around two hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the area is dry

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Coldstream: your questions answered

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do you cover Coldstream?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Coldstream and the rest of Northumberland. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you charge for travel?

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

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

How long before I can shower?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
