Bath resealing near Evenwood Gate

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

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

Bath resealing in Evenwood Gate without replacing anything

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We work on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and people most frequently call us about damp near the bath and gaps in the seal.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Will it make a mess?

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

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Evenwood Gate?

Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your DL14 postcode.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Hidden water damage
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Why it’s worth resealing in Evenwood Gate

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

  • Most jobs done in one visit

How we price bath resealing

We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
