Bath resealing in Fulwood, done in place

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Typical jobs include discoloured, yellow sealant and a messy previous reseal, in baths, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we are called out for in Fulwood

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Common reasons people in Fulwood contact us include:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • An untidy old seal
  • Mould you cannot clean out

What to look for in a quote

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

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.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Prices and what affects them

We charge the same across the UK, including Fulwood. What changes the price is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

There is 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 reply with a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

The process

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

For a price in Fulwood, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Advice

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean 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 will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Questions from Fulwood

Do you seal over the old sealant?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

What happens after I send photos?

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Do you cover the whole of Lancashire?

The whole UK, including all of Lancashire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is resealing worth it?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
