Bath resealing for Eppleby homes

Bath resealing at your home in Eppleby

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Common call-outs are for silicone smeared on tiles and leaks at the edges, across baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Landlord and trade work in Eppleby

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

For anyone letting property in or around Eppleby, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Is resealing worth it?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Most jobs done in one visit

See our prices page.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Do you need bath resealing in Eppleby?

In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Unsealed corners
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Mould you can’t clean out

Questions to ask before you book

  • Aftercare advice
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

10 questions to ask before you book

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Hidden water damage
  • A flexing bath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

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

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For a price in Eppleby, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
