Bath resealing for Hutton Sessay homes

How we handle bath resealing in Hutton Sessay

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are leaks at the edges and black spots in the silicone.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Hutton Sessay as everywhere else we work.

What affects the price in Hutton Sessay

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Hutton Sessay, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Landlord and trade work in Hutton Sessay

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Signs you need bath resealing in Hutton Sessay

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Stained silicone

Choosing a repair company

Common questions in Hutton Sessay

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

Does someone need to be in?

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

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Hutton Sessay. Prices do not change with location.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Can new silicone go over old?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow around two hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  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. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No extra charge for your area
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • No need to remove anything
