Bath resealing in Kilsby, done in place

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s black mould in the sealant and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Resealing in Kilsby: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why Kilsby clients choose us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No extra charge for your area
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Keep the joints dry

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

What affects the price in Kilsby

Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

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

What a repair can’t fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Our hiring checklist

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a couple of hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Related advice

Kilsby questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How long does a reseal take?

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

Do you seal over the old sealant?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

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