Bath resealing for Esh Winning homes

How we handle bath resealing in Esh Winning

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Typical jobs include old sealant that looks dirty and gaps in the seal, across basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in County Durham and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repairs by material

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Your questions about bath resealing in Esh Winning

Do you cover Esh Winning?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Esh Winning and the rest of County Durham. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

  • Gaps in the seal

Questions to ask before you book

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a couple of hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
