Bath resealing for Haswell Moor homes

Bath resealing at your home in Haswell Moor

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units, and people most frequently call us about water getting behind the bath or tray and gaps by the taps.

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

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Prices and what affects them

There is no area surcharge for Haswell Moor. The price reflects:

  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Resealing in Haswell Moor: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A flexing bath
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

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

What we work on

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

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Air the room after use
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

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

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Your questions about bath resealing in Haswell Moor

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How long does a reseal take?

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

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How long before I can shower?

We will give you the curing time.

Repairs by material

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
