Bath resealing near Helmshore

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  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. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Landlord and trade work in Helmshore

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Air the room after use
  • Keep the joints dry

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

What affects the price in Helmshore

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

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your BB4 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Resealing in Helmshore: why it matters

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
