Bath resealing at your home in Goldsithney

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and baths, and the jobs we see most are silicone smeared on tiles and old sealant that looks dirty.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Is resealing worth it?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Prices and what affects them

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Signs you need bath resealing in Goldsithney

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

Most people contact us after spotting something like this:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Gaps by the taps
  • A messy previous reseal

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How the colour is matched

Choosing a repair company

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Keep the joints dry

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Common questions in Goldsithney

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you cover Goldsithney?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Goldsithney. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

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

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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