Bath resealing at your home in Lea Hall

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Common call-outs are for discoloured, yellow sealant and a messy previous reseal, across basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, generally around 24 hours.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Why it’s worth resealing in Lea Hall

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

When to call us in Lea Hall

In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

The things clients typically mention when they call are:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How to care for the finish

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take around two hours, including clearing up.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Questions from Lea Hall

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Lea Hall?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

What bath resealing costs

We charge the same across the UK, including Lea Hall. What changes the price is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

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. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
