Trusted bath resealing in Flixborough

Bath resealing at your home in Flixborough

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, plus curing time. We work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are gaps in the seal and old sealant that looks dirty.

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

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

Why it’s worth resealing in Flixborough

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

See our prices page.

Common problems we fix in Flixborough

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Damp near the bath
  • An untidy old seal
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Black mould in the sealant

Questions to ask before you book

  • How your room will be protected
  • How the colour is matched
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How long it needs to cure

How to compare quotes

How we price bath resealing

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Flixborough questions

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do you cover Flixborough?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Flixborough for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  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

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A flexing bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures
