Need bath resealing in Healing?

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

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

Bath resealing in Healing without replacing anything

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Our technicians work on baths, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are an untidy old seal and black spots in the silicone.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Common questions in Healing

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across North East Lincolnshire.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you work in Healing?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Healing. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to around two hours, including clearing up.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A flexing bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Keep the joints dry

Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

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

Baths

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

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Healing use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Do you need bath resealing in Healing?

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

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

Prices and what affects them

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match

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

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Most clients in Healing get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
