Bath resealing in Easter Skeld without replacing anything

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are a messy previous reseal and missing sealant behind the taps.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

When to call us in Easter Skeld

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

Common reasons people in Easter Skeld contact us include:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes around two hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  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. 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

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Your questions about bath resealing in Easter Skeld

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you cover Easter Skeld?

We do. Technicians travel to Easter Skeld from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How long before I can shower?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Is resealing worth it?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Work done at your home or business

What bath resealing costs

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
