Bath resealing in Dobs Hill without replacing anything

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We regularly repair wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are discoloured, yellow sealant and silicone smeared on tiles.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Flintshire.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Why it’s worth resealing in Dobs Hill

Resealing costs very little. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why Dobs Hill customers choose us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • No need to remove anything
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

See our prices page.

What affects the price in Dobs Hill

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know

If you’re in Dobs Hill and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Landlord and trade work in Dobs Hill

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dobs Hill as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

When to call us in Dobs Hill

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

People generally call us after spotting one of these:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Stained silicone
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Before booking anyone

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What protection goes down before work starts

10 questions to ask before you book

Your questions about bath resealing in Dobs Hill

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How long will it take?

A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Is it messy?

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

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Dobs Hill?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear the area around the damage
