Bath resealing in Gwersyllt

Bath resealing at your home in Gwersyllt

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Our repair technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and people most frequently call us about unsealed corners and old sealant that looks dirty.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Do you need bath resealing in Gwersyllt?

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • An untidy old seal
  • Gaps in the seal

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the colour is matched
  • What prep work is covered

Our hiring checklist

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Gwersyllt: your questions answered

How long will it take?

A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Gwersyllt. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
