Bath resealing for King's Cliffe homes

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Good ventilation is the best protection, 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, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

About our bath resealing in King's Cliffe

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are an untidy old seal and discoloured, yellow sealant.

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

Landlord and trade work in King's Cliffe

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

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What affects the price in King's Cliffe

We charge the same across the UK, including King's Cliffe. What changes the price is:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

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

Baths

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

Common questions in King's Cliffe

Can you quote from photos?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.

How long does a reseal take?

A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Do you cover the entire of Northamptonshire?

Everywhere in the UK, King's Cliffe included. Travel is included in the price.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Common problems we fix in King's Cliffe

Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Stained silicone
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Mould you cannot clean out

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How to look after the finish
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
