Bath resealing for Lane End homes

How we handle bath resealing in Lane End

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Our technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and people most often call us about black mould in the sealant and sealant that’s split or lifting.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Lane End as everywhere else we work.

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a couple of hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  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

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Your questions about bath resealing in Lane End

When can I use the bath after resealing?

We’ll give you the curing time, usually around a day.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do I need to be at home?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

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

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

How long does a reseal take?

A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time 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.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Air the room after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What we’re called out for in Lane End

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Damp near the bath
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A flexing bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit

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.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lane End

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

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