How we handle bath resealing in East Anstey

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you are dealing with stained silicone and black spots in the silicone, we can typically put it right.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How we price bath resealing

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

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Landlord and trade work in East Anstey

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

If you manage property in East Anstey, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Air the room after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

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

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hidden water damage
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Your questions about bath resealing in East Anstey

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
