Bath resealing in Little Bollington

FAQs for Little Bollington

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

How long does silicone take to cure?

We will give you the curing time.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Do you cover the whole of Trafford?

All of Trafford, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Bath resealing at your home in Little Bollington

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours. If you’re dealing with damp near the bath and mould you can’t clean out, we can generally put it right.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we are called out for in Little Bollington

Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How your room will be protected
  • What prep work is covered

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What affects the price in Little Bollington

You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Little Bollington. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Little Bollington, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Hidden water damage
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

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

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Resealing in Little Bollington: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
