Bath resealing near Goonbell

How we handle bath resealing in Goonbell

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We’re frequently asked to fix silicone coming away from the tiles and missing sealant behind the taps, across wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Choosing a repair company

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes a couple of hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Common questions in Goonbell

How long before I can shower?

Typically after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Goonbell.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Are there extra charges for Goonbell?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What affects the price in Goonbell

We charge the same across the UK, including Goonbell. What changes the price is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Resealing in Goonbell: why it matters

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Landlord and trade work in Goonbell

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
