How we handle bath resealing in Littletown

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, as one neat, continuous bead. We’re often asked to fix gaps in the seal and mould you can’t clean out, in wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Littletown and across Kirklees.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Air the room after use
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Stained silicone

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Prices and what affects them

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A photo taken from further back

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

FAQs for Littletown

Do you cover Littletown?

We do. We send a technician to Littletown for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

How long does resealing take?

Normally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A flexing bath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
