Bath resealing for Constable Burton homes

Bath resealing in Constable Burton without replacing anything

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Common call-outs are for sealant that’s split or lifting and discoloured, yellow sealant, across baths, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Use the extractor fan

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Why reseal now?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. 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.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

How we price bath resealing

You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Constable Burton questions

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Generally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Common problems we fix in Constable Burton

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Stained silicone
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Black spots in the silicone
