Bath resealing in Laide, done in place

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are water getting behind the bath or tray and unsealed corners.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Repairs by material

Baths

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

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Common questions in Laide

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Highland. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Can you quote from photos?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What we’re called out for in Laide

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

Comparing quotes

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Resealing in Laide: why it matters

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

What bath resealing costs

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For a price in Laide, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
