Our hiring checklist

Bath resealing in Link Top, done in place

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths, and people most frequently call us about missing sealant behind the taps and silicone smeared on tiles.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Why it’s worth resealing in Link Top

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

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

Materials we repair

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

The process

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Questions from Link Top

Do you come to Link Top?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Link Top. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

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.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Link Top

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
