Bath resealing for Gresford homes

About our bath resealing in Gresford

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Typical jobs include old sealant that looks dirty and mould you can’t clean out, on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Gresford as everywhere else we work.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure 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.

What we can’t put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Movement in the bath or tray

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Keep the joints dry

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

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the area is dry

Advice

When to call us in Gresford

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Leaks at the edges

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the colour is matched
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

10 questions to ask before booking

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

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

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Gresford questions

How long does a reseal take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed price. There’s no obligation to book.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
