About our bath resealing in Great Knowley

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s a messy previous reseal and mould you can’t clean out, we can help, on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, 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.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Great Knowley: your questions answered

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you come to Great Knowley?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Great Knowley from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

How long does a reseal take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Great Knowley use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

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

What affects the price in Great Knowley

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
