About our bath resealing in Glatton

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Typical jobs include gaps by the taps and an untidy old seal, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

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

Common questions in Glatton

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

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

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Glatton

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We clean up when we are 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. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the area is dry

What we cannot put right

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What we’re called out for in Glatton

In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Stained silicone
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Mould you can’t clean out

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

Why it’s worth resealing in Glatton

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
