Bath resealing in Lee Head

How we handle bath resealing in Lee Head

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. If you’re dealing with black spots in the silicone and unsealed corners, we can help.

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

What affects the price in Lee Head

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

  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Lee Head. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Details of any past repairs

If you are in Lee Head and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Lee Head: your questions answered

Will it make a mess?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you cover Lee Head?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Lee Head for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

DIY kit or professional 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes around two hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  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. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

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

What we work on

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lee Head

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Dry the seal after bathing

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

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
