Bath resealing in Hopkinstown

About our bath resealing in Hopkinstown

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Typical jobs include black mould in the sealant and gaps by the taps, across baths, basins & vanity units and wet rooms.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Hopkinstown and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hollow or loose tiles

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

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a couple of hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Related advice

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Everything repaired in place
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

Common problems we fix in Hopkinstown

In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Leaks at the edges

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

If you manage property in Hopkinstown, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Air the room after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Keep the joints dry

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

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.

Hopkinstown: your questions answered

Are you accredited?

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

Can new silicone go over old?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

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.
