Bath resealing near Lincoln

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take around two hours.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

About our bath resealing in Lincoln

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. Whether it’s gaps in the seal and damp near the bath, we can generally put it right.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Resealing in Lincoln: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Read our pricing.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A flexing bath
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

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

Materials we work on in Lincoln

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lincoln

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Your questions about bath resealing in Lincoln

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Generally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

Do you come to Lincoln?

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

How long does resealing take?

Normally a couple of hours, plus curing time.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Open a window after bathing

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

When to call us in Lincoln

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Stained silicone

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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 frequently lifts.

What affects the price in Lincoln

We do not charge extra for travel to Lincoln. The price comes down to:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
