Bath resealing in Levisham

How we handle bath resealing in Levisham

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. We regularly repair baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are silicone coming away from the tiles and mould you can’t clean out.

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

What we’re called out for in Levisham

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

The things customers generally mention when they call are:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

What to look for in a quote

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How the colour is matched
  • What prep work is covered

10 questions to ask before you book

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Use the extractor fan

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

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed 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.

How we price bath resealing

We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes around two hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

  • Hidden water damage
