DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How we handle bath resealing in Hallbankgate

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and the jobs we see most are old sealant that looks dirty and water getting behind the bath or tray.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Resealing in Hallbankgate: why it matters

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hallbankgate. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Read our prices page.

When we’d advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

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

Landlord and trade work in Hallbankgate

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Common problems we fix in Hallbankgate

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

People usually call us after spotting one of these:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Leaks at the edges

What to look for in a quote

  • What preparation is included
  • How your room will be protected
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Keep the joints dry

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

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