How we handle bath resealing in Garmelow

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Our repair technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and baths, and people most often call us about missing sealant behind the taps and gaps in the seal.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Garmelow and across Staffordshire.

Repairs by material

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

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

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

What affects the price in Garmelow

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is

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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

FAQs for Garmelow

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you cover the whole of Staffordshire?

Everywhere in the UK, Garmelow included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Garmelow?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Garmelow

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.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Garmelow as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Why it’s worth resealing in Garmelow

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
