How we handle bath resealing in Cotgrave

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are gaps by the taps and sealant that’s split or lifting.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Cotgrave and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

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

Common questions in Cotgrave

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Cotgrave?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

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

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

You will get the curing time from us, typically around a day.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Repairs by material

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  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. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Cotgrave, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
