Bath resealing in Hirst Courtney

Hirst Courtney: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Hirst Courtney?

We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your YO8 postcode.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you cover Hirst Courtney?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Hirst Courtney from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

How long will it take?

Normally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Hirst Courtney, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

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

Surfaces we repair

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

What bath resealing costs

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

When to call us in Hirst Courtney

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Leaks at the edges

What to look for in a quote

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What aftercare is recommended
