Bath resealing near Freemantle

Do you need bath resealing in Freemantle?

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

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Unsealed corners

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How the colour is matched

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

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

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a couple of hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Freemantle: your questions answered

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Hidden water damage
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Freemantle

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

Landlord and trade work in Freemantle

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

If you manage property in Freemantle, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
