Bath resealing near East Lexham

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

About our bath resealing in East Lexham

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you are dealing with an untidy old seal and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can typically put it right.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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.

Landlord and trade work in East Lexham

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in East Lexham use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

What bath resealing costs

There is no charge for travel to East Lexham. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

If you are in East Lexham and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Do you need bath resealing in East Lexham?

Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Common reasons people in East Lexham contact us are:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Stained silicone
  • Gaps in the seal

Before booking anyone

  • How to care for the finish
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How your room will be protected
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Our hiring checklist

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Air the room after use
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Why it’s worth resealing in East Lexham
