Book bath resealing in Highlane

The process

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Highlane questions

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

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

How long does silicone take to cure?

We’ll give you the curing time, generally around a day.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

What affects the price in Highlane

We charge the same across the UK, including Highlane. What changes the price is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Something in shot to show the size

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Why it’s worth resealing in Highlane

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Landlords, agents and businesses in Highlane

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Dry the seal after bathing

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

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

Do you need bath resealing in Highlane?

In time, even good sealant discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

Before booking anyone

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Aftercare advice
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

How to compare quotes

What we can’t put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hidden water damage

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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