Bath resealing for Lessingham homes

Lessingham: your questions answered

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

How long does a reseal take?

Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

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

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you work in Lessingham?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Lessingham for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

About our bath resealing in Lessingham

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Common call-outs are for discoloured, yellow sealant and black spots in the silicone, in kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Lessingham and across Norfolk.

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 normally cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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, with the joint fully dried first.

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It normally takes around two hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice

When to call us in Lessingham

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Stained silicone

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lessingham

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.

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.

Resealing in Lessingham: why it matters

Resealing costs very little. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Work done at your home or business
  • A fixed quote before you book

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Let steam out after showers

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
