Need bath resealing in Limeside?

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Bath resealing in Limeside, done in place

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. We are frequently asked to fix damp near the bath and missing sealant behind the taps, across shower trays & enclosures, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.

Common questions in Limeside

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

What does bath resealing cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Limeside use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes around two hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

What bath resealing costs

You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Limeside. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Why it’s worth resealing in Limeside

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
