Is resealing worth it?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How we handle bath resealing in Goathland

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Common call-outs are for black spots in the silicone and unsealed corners, in shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What affects the price in Goathland

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

  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

For anyone letting property in or around Goathland, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

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

Baths

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

When to call us in Goathland

In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Common reasons people in Goathland contact us include:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can I add another job to the visit?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
