Bath resealing for Hollins homes

Bath resealing in Hollins, done in place

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Common call-outs are for damp near the bath and silicone coming away from the tiles, across basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.

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

When a repair is not the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Hollins

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

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Common problems we fix in Hollins

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Stained silicone
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Gaps by the taps

Before booking anyone

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

Your questions about bath resealing in Hollins

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

How long does silicone take to cure?

You will get the curing time from us, generally around a day.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Are there extra charges for Hollins?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What affects the price in Hollins

You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Why it’s worth resealing in Hollins

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
