Bath resealing near Hoscar

About our bath resealing in Hoscar

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Common call-outs are for black mould in the sealant and unsealed corners, in shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hoscar

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What we’re called out for in Hoscar

Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Stained silicone
  • Damp near the bath
  • An untidy old seal

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Who turns up on the day
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How we price bath resealing

There’s no charge for travel to Hoscar. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your L40 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

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

What we work on

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

Common questions in Hoscar

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is resealing worth it?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes around two hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
