Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Dry the seal after bathing

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

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

About our bath resealing in Linton

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Common call-outs are for stained silicone and silicone coming away from the tiles, in wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Do you need bath resealing in Linton?

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Unsealed corners
  • Mould you can’t clean out

What your quote should include

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

Our hiring checklist

Landlord and trade work in Linton

For anyone letting property in or around Linton, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Get a quote

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

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.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

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

Common questions in Linton

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Linton is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens after I send photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Kent.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What we cannot put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Resealing in Linton: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
