Bath resealing for Linton-on-Ouse homes

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

About our bath resealing in Linton-on-Ouse

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. If you are dealing with black mould in the sealant and old sealant that looks dirty, we can normally put it right.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

When to call us in Linton-on-Ouse

Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • An untidy old seal
  • Black mould in the sealant

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

10 questions to ask before you book

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to around two hours.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Open a window after bathing

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

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Repairs by material

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

How we price bath resealing

We do not charge extra for travel to Linton-on-Ouse. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Questions from Linton-on-Ouse

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
