Bath resealing near Cribyn

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Keep the joints dry

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Bath resealing in Cribyn without replacing anything

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. We’re often asked to fix water getting behind the bath or tray and missing sealant behind the taps, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  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

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Movement in the bath or tray

  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Baths

Do you need bath resealing in Cribyn?

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Damp near the bath
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • An untidy old seal

What to look for in a quote

  • How your room will be protected
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Resealing in Cribyn: 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. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Cribyn. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why Cribyn clients choose us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Baths

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

Questions from Cribyn

Do you seal over the old sealant?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

How much does bath resealing cost in Cribyn?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.
