Bath resealing near Crackley

Bath resealing at your home in Crackley

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s leaks at the edges and mould you can’t clean out, we can help, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Resealing in Crackley: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Air the room after use
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

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

What affects the price in Crackley

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Your questions about bath resealing in Crackley

Are there extra charges for Crackley?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Can new silicone go over old?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

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

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Crackley

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

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
