Bath resealing in Lenton Abbey, done in place

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are mould you can’t clean out and stained silicone.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Lenton Abbey: your questions answered

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can new silicone go over old?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Are there extra charges for Lenton Abbey?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

When to call us in Lenton Abbey

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Common reasons people in Lenton Abbey contact us are:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Damp near the bath

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take around two hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any 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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
