How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow about two hours for a bath, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  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. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the area is dry

How to get a price

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

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

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How we price bath resealing

There is no charge for travel to Linton. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Do you need bath resealing in Linton?

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Leaks at the edges

Before you book anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the price covers travel
