Bath resealing in Langore

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Work done at your home or business

Bath resealing at your home in Langore

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. We are frequently asked to fix old sealant that looks dirty and an untidy old seal, on baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

When to call us in Langore

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Stained silicone
  • Damp near the bath
  • An untidy old seal
  • Unsealed corners

What to look for in a quote

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Our hiring checklist

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Langore questions

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

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

How long does a reseal take?

Generally a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Langore use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
