Bath resealing near Dewsbury Moor

When to call us in Dewsbury Moor

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

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • A messy previous reseal

Comparing quotes

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

10 questions to ask before you book

Bath resealing in Dewsbury Moor, done in place

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Our technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, baths and basins & vanity units, and people most often call us about black spots in the silicone and damp near the bath.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Dewsbury Moor and across Kirklees.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A flexing bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Dewsbury Moor questions

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

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

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow around two hours. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
