Bath resealing in Kirklington

About our bath resealing in Kirklington

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s silicone smeared on tiles and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can help, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

Your questions about bath resealing in Kirklington

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

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

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

Resealing in Kirklington: why it matters

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

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