Trusted bath resealing in Lenton

How to look after the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Air the room after use

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

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

How we handle bath resealing in Lenton

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Whether it’s black spots in the silicone and gaps in the seal, we can typically put it right.

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

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Do you need bath resealing in Lenton?

Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

Questions to ask before booking

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the colour is matched
  • What preparation is included

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lenton

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lenton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Prices and what affects them

There is no charge for travel to Lenton. The price comes down to:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Why it’s worth resealing in Lenton

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

FAQs for Lenton

When can I use the bath after resealing?

You’ll get the curing time from us, generally around a day.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.

How long does a reseal take?

A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Can new silicone go over old?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take around two hours, including clearing up.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
