Bath resealing in Hoylandswaine

How we handle bath resealing in Hoylandswaine

We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops using mould-resistant silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. We work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most frequently call us about damp near the bath and discoloured, yellow sealant.

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

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Hoylandswaine: your questions answered

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you work in Hoylandswaine?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Hoylandswaine from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you need bath resealing in Hoylandswaine?

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

Comparing quotes

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

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

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Baths
  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures

  • Basins & vanity units

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hoylandswaine

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.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
