Bath resealing near Dalton

Bath resealing in Dalton, done in place

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. Common call-outs are for stained silicone and water getting behind the bath or tray, across wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Dalton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

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

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow around two hours.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Common problems we fix in Dalton

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • An untidy old seal
  • Mould you can’t clean out

Our hiring checklist

When we’d advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Dalton

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dalton

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Dalton questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How long does a reseal take?

A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
