Bath resealing for Leathley homes

Common questions in Leathley

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is my repair covered?

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

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

How we handle bath resealing in Leathley

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Whether it’s discoloured, yellow sealant and a messy previous reseal, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Let steam out after showers

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

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Why reseal now?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Landlords, agents and businesses in Leathley

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

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

How we price bath resealing

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Leathley, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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 usually cheaper.

When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Signs you need bath resealing in Leathley

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

Clients usually contact us about:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Damp near the bath
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Gaps by the taps

What to look for in a quote

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How to look after the finish
