Repairs by material

Shower trays

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Your questions about bath resealing in Kirkhamgate

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Do you cover the whole of Wakefield?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Resealing in Kirkhamgate: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Kirkhamgate. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • No need to remove anything

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

How we price bath resealing

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Air the room after use

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

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