About our bath resealing in Fingal Street

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. We are frequently asked to fix mould you can’t clean out and stained silicone, on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Fingal Street as everywhere else we work.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow around two hours. Before leaving, we tell you when 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. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Why it’s worth resealing in Fingal Street

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Why Fingal Street customers choose us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

See our pricing.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fingal Street use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

How we price bath resealing

We charge the same across the UK, including Fingal Street. The price reflects:

  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your IP13 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Do you need bath resealing in Fingal Street?

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Damp near the bath
  • Stained silicone
  • An untidy old seal

What your quote should include

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How changes to the job are handled

FAQs for Fingal Street

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
