Bath resealing in Kexby

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice

About our bath resealing in Kexby

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. We’re frequently asked to fix old sealant that looks dirty and mould you can’t clean out, across wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Why it’s worth resealing in Kexby

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

What bath resealing costs

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match

We don’t 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.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What we’re called out for in Kexby

Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

Before you book anyone

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, it’s worth having it done properly.

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.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

What a repair can’t fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Hidden water damage

Kexby questions

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Usually because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Usually after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you work in Kexby?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Kexby. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
