Bath resealing near Hockerley

Bath resealing in Hockerley without replacing anything

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about discoloured, yellow sealant and water getting behind the bath or tray.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Common questions in Hockerley

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is my repair covered?

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

Do you cover the entire of Derbyshire?

We cover the entire UK, including Hockerley and the rest of Derbyshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

How long will it take?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Do you work in Hockerley?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Hockerley for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take around two hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear the area around the damage

Common problems we fix in Hockerley

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Stained silicone
  • Unsealed corners
  • Damp near the bath

What your quote should include

  • Aftercare advice
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

How we price bath resealing

Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Hockerley, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Air the room after use

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
