Bath resealing at your home in Leebotwood

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Our technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about water getting behind the bath or tray and black mould in the sealant.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t 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, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Hollow or loose tiles

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

What we work on

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Baths

Repairs by material

Leebotwood questions

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Leebotwood?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SY6 postcode.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How long does a reseal take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Leebotwood

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

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Before booking anyone

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Aftercare advice

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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.

Is resealing worth it?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • No need to remove anything
  • We leave the room as we found it
