How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off

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

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

How we handle bath resealing in Dallinghoo

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, plus curing time. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are sealant that’s split or lifting and leaks at the edges.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Landlord and trade work in Dallinghoo

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

If you manage property in Dallinghoo, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

Do you need bath resealing in Dallinghoo?

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Gaps in the seal
  • An untidy old seal
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What prep work is covered

What bath resealing costs

There’s no area surcharge for Dallinghoo. The price reflects:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • No extra charge for your area

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
