Bath resealing at your home in Craigens

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are missing sealant behind the taps and water getting behind the bath or tray.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How to look after the repair

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

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Air the room after use

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Can I fix it myself?

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

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Common questions in Craigens

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

How long will it take?

Normally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you need bath resealing in Craigens?

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

The things clients usually mention when they call are:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What prep work is covered

Choosing a repair company

How we price bath resealing

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • 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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Why it’s worth resealing in Craigens

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Craigens. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  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. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price
