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.

How we handle bath resealing in Kilncadzow

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. If you’re dealing with a messy previous reseal and missing sealant behind the taps, we can typically put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and wet rooms alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we cannot put right

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

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hollow or loose tiles

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Kilncadzow

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

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Air the room after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Landlord and trade work in Kilncadzow

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kilncadzow as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Kilncadzow questions

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Kilncadzow?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

What areas do you cover?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Resealing in Kilncadzow: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • A fixed quote before booking

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a couple of hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
