How we handle bath resealing in Little Horton

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We work on baths, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and common reasons people contact us are leaks at the edges and a messy previous reseal.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Little Horton and across Bradford.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Open a window after bathing

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

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower

For a price in Little Horton, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Little Horton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

See our prices page.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

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

What we work on

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

Common problems we fix in Little Horton

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

Common reasons people in Little Horton contact us include:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Stained silicone
  • Gaps in the seal
  • An untidy old seal

What to look for in a quote

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What preparation is included
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

How to compare quotes

Your questions about bath resealing in Little Horton

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Usually because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you cover the entire of Bradford?

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

Are there extra charges for Little Horton?

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

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Little Horton.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Landlord and trade work in Little Horton

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

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for around two hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
