Bath resealing in Hook-a-Gate

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Bath resealing in Hook-a-Gate without replacing anything

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Typical jobs include discoloured, yellow sealant and missing sealant behind the taps, on shower trays & enclosures, baths and wet rooms.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

If you’re in Hook-a-Gate and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Questions from Hook-a-Gate

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you cover the whole of Shropshire?

All of Shropshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What information do you need?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

How long before I can shower?

We will give you the curing time.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Are you accredited?

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

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What we’re called out for in Hook-a-Gate

Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • An untidy old seal
  • Damp near the bath

What to look for in a quote

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How your room will be protected
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

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

Baths

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

Why it’s worth resealing in Hook-a-Gate

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
