How we handle bath resealing in Heaton

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. We work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and people most often call us about gaps by the taps and gaps in the seal.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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

How we price bath resealing

We don’t charge extra for travel to Heaton. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

FAQs for Heaton

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Do you cover Heaton?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Heaton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How long does a reseal take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

What does bath resealing cost?

We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LA3 postcode.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Do you need bath resealing in Heaton?

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

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • An untidy old seal
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Leaks at the edges

How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
