Why reseal now?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Fotherby. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Fotherby: your questions answered

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

What does bath resealing cost?

We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Landlord and trade work in Fotherby

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

For anyone letting property in or around Fotherby, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Do you need bath resealing in Fotherby?

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Gaps by the taps

What to look for in a quote

  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  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. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Get a quote

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Air the room after use
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hidden water damage

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

Materials we repair

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