How we handle bath resealing in Dacre Banks

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We’re frequently asked to fix old sealant that looks dirty and gaps in the seal, in kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Dacre Banks as everywhere else we work.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

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.

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Common questions in Dacre Banks

How long does silicone take to cure?

Usually after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Do you come to Dacre Banks?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Dacre Banks from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

For anyone letting property in or around Dacre Banks, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What bath resealing costs

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Do you need bath resealing in Dacre Banks?

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • Stained silicone
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • If travel is included in the price
