How we handle bath resealing in Ganton

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are silicone smeared on tiles and black mould in the sealant.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

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

How we price bath resealing

You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your YO12 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Signs you need bath resealing in Ganton

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Damp near the bath

What to look for in a quote

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How your room will be protected

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

Why it’s worth resealing in Ganton

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Your questions about bath resealing in Ganton

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

What we cannot put right

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

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hidden water damage

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair
