Bath resealing in Gretton, done in place

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include stained silicone and missing sealant behind the taps, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

When to call us in Gretton

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Stained silicone
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Questions to ask before booking

  • What prep work is covered
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How to look after the finish

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What affects the price in Gretton

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Movement in the bath or tray

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

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.
