Bath resealing in Freiston

How we handle bath resealing in Freiston

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Typical jobs include damp near the bath and black spots in the silicone, on shower trays & enclosures, baths and basins & vanity units.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Signs you need bath resealing in Freiston

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

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Sealant that is split or lifting

10 questions to ask before you book

Freiston: your questions answered

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Lincolnshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Generally after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

Do you come to Freiston?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Freiston and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a couple of hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

What bath resealing costs

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
