Book bath resealing in Great Lever

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint 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, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Bath resealing in Great Lever without replacing anything

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. Typical jobs include mould you can’t clean out and silicone coming away from the tiles, in baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures.

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

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Great Lever as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Is resealing worth it?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Air the room after use

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Do you need bath resealing in Great Lever?

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Common reasons people in Great Lever contact us are:

  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting

Before you book anyone

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How soon you can use it again

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

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

Baths

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

What bath resealing costs

There’s no charge for travel to Great Lever. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Questions from Great Lever

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your BL3 postcode.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Do you cover Great Lever?

We do. We send a technician to Great Lever for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
