Bath resealing for Leighton homes

What we do, step by step

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 about two hours for a bath.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  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

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CW1 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

About our bath resealing in Leighton

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and common reasons people contact us are sealant that’s split or lifting and missing sealant behind the taps.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

What we are called out for in Leighton

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How your room will be protected
  • If travel is included in the price

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Open a window after bathing

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

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.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Leighton: your questions answered

Do you cover Leighton?

We do. Technicians travel to Leighton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How long before I can shower?

You will get the curing time from us.

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.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Why reseal now?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Leighton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Same prices wherever you are

Read our prices page.

What affects the price in Leighton

You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
