How we handle bath resealing in Lindford

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are silicone coming away from the tiles and discoloured, yellow sealant.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Prices and what affects them

You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically 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

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lindford

If you manage property in Lindford, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Questions from Lindford

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

How long before I can shower?

You will get the curing time from us.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Do you seal over the old sealant?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  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

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Do you need bath resealing in Lindford?

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • An untidy old seal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

What your quote should include

  • Aftercare advice
  • When it can be used again
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How your room will be protected

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A flexing bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

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