Need bath resealing in Inverinate?

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Inverinate use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Bath resealing in Inverinate, done in place

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. If you’re dealing with leaks at the edges and mould you can’t clean out, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Dry the seal after bathing

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

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a couple of hours, including clearing up.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How we price bath resealing

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Inverinate, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

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

Baths

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

Resealing in Inverinate: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Inverinate. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

When to call us in Inverinate

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Unsealed corners

What your quote should include

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
