Bath resealing near Kearby

Bath resealing at your home in Kearby

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, in a neat, continuous bead. We work on baths, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are mould you can’t clean out and leaks at the edges.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Air the room after use
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Why reseal now?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kearby

For anyone letting property in or around Kearby, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Common problems we fix in Kearby

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

What your quote should include

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How your room will be protected

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Hollow or loose tiles

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes around two hours.

  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, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage
