Bath resealing in Firsby

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Bath resealing at your home in Firsby

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Typical jobs include gaps in the seal and gaps by the taps, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Your questions about bath resealing in Firsby

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Firsby is covered. Prices do not change with location.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Firsby as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take around two hours.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Prices and what affects them

There is no charge for travel to Firsby. The price comes down to:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What we’re called out for in Firsby

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

Questions to ask before booking

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How changes to the job are handled

How to compare quotes

What we cannot put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A flexing bath

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

Materials we repair

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