Bath resealing in Kirton End

Bath resealing in Kirton End without replacing anything

Preparation is everything in a reseal: 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. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are black mould in the sealant and damp near the bath.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lincolnshire.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

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

Why it’s worth resealing in Kirton End

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Kirton End: your questions answered

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do you come to Kirton End?

We do. Technicians travel to Kirton End from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

How long does resealing take?

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

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

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

What areas do you cover?

All of Lincolnshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

When to call us in Kirton End

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Gaps in the seal

How to compare quotes

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A flexing bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes around two hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

What affects the price in Kirton End

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
