About our bath resealing in Delves

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. If you are dealing with gaps by the taps and black spots in the silicone, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Delves and across North Yorkshire.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

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

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Why it’s worth resealing in Delves

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  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. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

How to prepare

What affects the price in Delves

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Most customers in Delves get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Signs you need bath resealing in Delves

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Damp near the bath
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Unsealed corners

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Who will actually do the work

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
