Bath resealing in Land Gate

Is resealing worth it?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Read our pricing.

How we handle bath resealing in Land Gate

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Common call-outs are for unsealed corners and a messy previous reseal, in kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Land Gate

If you manage property in Land Gate, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How we price bath resealing

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Land Gate. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For a price in Land Gate, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

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

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

When we would advise against a repair

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What we’re called out for in Land Gate

In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Gaps by the taps
  • An untidy old seal
  • Gaps in the seal

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What happens if they find more damage

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  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. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Your questions about bath resealing in Land Gate

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How long does a reseal take?

Generally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Do you cover the entire of Wigan?

The entire UK, including all of Wigan. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
