Bath resealing in Darlaston

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

About our bath resealing in Darlaston

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. If you’re dealing with damp near the bath and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can usually put it right, on baths, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

What affects the price in Darlaston

Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Darlaston questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

How do I book?

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

What happens next?

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

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

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.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Darlaston?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What we cannot put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a couple of hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Advice

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Is resealing worth it?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • No extra charge for your area

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

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

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
