Trusted bath resealing in Lidget Green

How we handle bath resealing in Lidget Green

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are a messy previous reseal and leaks at the edges.

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

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

What bath resealing costs

We don’t charge extra for travel to Lidget Green. The price comes down to:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

10 questions to ask before you book

Lidget Green questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How long does silicone take to cure?

You will get the curing time from us, usually around a day.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Do you cover Lidget Green?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Lidget Green from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

How much does bath resealing cost in Lidget Green?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • No need to remove anything
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
