About our bath resealing in Great Urswick

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s missing sealant behind the taps and old sealant that looks dirty, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cumbria.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Common problems we fix in Great Urswick

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Damp near the bath
  • An untidy old seal
  • Sealant that is split or lifting

Questions to ask before you book

  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How soon you can use it again

How to compare quotes

Common questions in Great Urswick

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you come to Great Urswick?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Great Urswick from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Do you cover the whole of Cumbria?

We cover the entire UK, including Great Urswick and the rest of Cumbria. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Great Urswick

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

What we can’t put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A flexing bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

Prices and what affects them

There is no area surcharge for Great Urswick. What changes the price is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Use the extractor fan

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. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
