Bath resealing in Howe

Bath resealing in Howe, done in place

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Whether it’s damp near the bath and an untidy old seal, we can help.

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

Your questions about bath resealing in Howe

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Howe?

Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your NR15 postcode.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Landlord and trade work in Howe

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What affects the price in Howe

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually 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.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Resealing in Howe: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No need to remove anything
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes around two hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

The things customers typically mention when they call are:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Damp near the bath
  • Unsealed corners

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Aftercare advice
  • How the room is protected while they work

10 questions to ask before you book

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
