Bath resealing for Great Haywood homes

About our bath resealing in Great Haywood

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and people most frequently call us about sealant that’s split or lifting and an untidy old seal.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hidden water damage

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Resealing in Great Haywood: why it matters

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually 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

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

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.

Signs you need bath resealing in Great Haywood

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Black spots in the silicone

What to look for in a quote

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What prep work is covered

Landlord and trade work in Great Haywood

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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 Great Haywood as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Your questions about bath resealing in Great Haywood

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Do you cover the entire of Staffordshire?

Everywhere in the UK, Great Haywood included. Travel is included in the price.

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can price the job without visiting.

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Use the extractor fan

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally around 24 hours.

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.
