How we handle bath resealing in Lisburn

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Our technicians work on wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are silicone smeared on tiles and gaps by the taps.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lisburn

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Air the room after use
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Use 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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Why it’s worth resealing in Lisburn

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our prices page.

How it works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  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. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we’re called out for in Lisburn

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

Comparing quotes

  • Who turns up on the day
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • If travel is included in the price
  • When it can be used again

FAQs for Lisburn

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your BT27 postcode.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can new silicone go over old?

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

Repairs by material

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

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