Signs you need bath resealing in Countesthorpe

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Stained silicone
  • An untidy old seal
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Leaks at the edges

Why it’s worth resealing in Countesthorpe

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Why book with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

See our prices page.

Prices and what affects them

We charge the same across the UK, including Countesthorpe. The price reflects:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is

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.

Quotes from your photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

How to look after the repair

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

  • Air the room after use
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, generally around 24 hours.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Your questions about bath resealing in Countesthorpe

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

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

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Leicestershire.

How long does a reseal take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
