Bath resealing for Little Cawthorpe homes

Common problems we fix in Little Cawthorpe

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Damp near the bath
  • An untidy old seal
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Black mould in the sealant

Comparing quotes

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What happens if they find more damage

10 questions to ask before you book

Bath resealing in Little Cawthorpe, done in place

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. If you are dealing with silicone smeared on tiles and black mould in the sealant, we can help, on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths alike.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Landlord and trade work in Little Cawthorpe

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

For anyone letting property in or around Little Cawthorpe, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes around two hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

Related advice

Questions from Little Cawthorpe

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Do you work in Little Cawthorpe?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Little Cawthorpe. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I have to be there?

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

Why reseal now?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

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

What affects the price in Little Cawthorpe

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

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