Bath resealing for Eddlethorpe homes

Bath resealing at your home in Eddlethorpe

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. If you are dealing with black mould in the sealant and damp near the bath, we can generally put it right.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in North Yorkshire.

What affects the price in Eddlethorpe

We don’t charge extra for travel to Eddlethorpe. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

For a price in Eddlethorpe, 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.

What we cannot put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Eddlethorpe

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

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Air the room after use
  • Use the extractor fan

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Eddlethorpe

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Eddlethorpe as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

For anyone letting property in or around Eddlethorpe, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a couple of hours.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Eddlethorpe: your questions answered

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of North Yorkshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
