Bath resealing at your home in Ingworth

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Whether it’s water getting behind the bath or tray and a messy previous reseal, we can help.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Ingworth questions

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How long will it take?

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

Do you cover the whole of Norfolk?

Everywhere in the UK, Ingworth included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What do you need from me?

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

How long does silicone take to cure?

You will get the curing time from us.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

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

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a couple of hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

Repairs by material

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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A DIY attempt is not 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.

When to call us in Ingworth

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Unsealed corners
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

Before booking anyone

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Ingworth

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

Landlord and trade work in Ingworth

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

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

Why it’s worth resealing in Ingworth

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
