Bath resealing for Elton homes

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Open a window after bathing

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

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

Bath resealing in Elton 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. We work on baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are black spots in the silicone and sealant that’s split or lifting.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

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.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Elton

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

  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

FAQs for Elton

Do you come to Elton?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Elton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

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

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

How do I book?

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Signs you need bath resealing in Elton

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Stained silicone
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Gaps in the seal

Questions to ask before booking

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
