Bath resealing in Ingoe

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hidden water damage
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Bath resealing in Ingoe without replacing anything

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include an untidy old seal and unsealed corners, in wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units.

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

Ingoe questions

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

How long does a reseal take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

How long before I can shower?

You will get the curing time from us, generally around a day.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Ingoe, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ingoe use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Resealing in Ingoe: why it matters

Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Common problems we fix in Ingoe

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Aftercare advice
  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Air the room after use

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
