Bath resealing near Gargrave

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Bath resealing in Gargrave without replacing anything

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Whether it’s gaps by the taps and damp near the bath, we can normally put it right.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Your questions about bath resealing in Gargrave

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.

How long will it take?

A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you cover the entire of North Yorkshire?

We work UK-wide, so Gargrave is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access

  • Unsealed corners
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Stained silicone
  • Black spots in the silicone

Choosing a repair company

Prices and what affects them

You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Why it’s worth resealing in Gargrave

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

When a repair isn’t the answer

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 normally the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
