Bath resealing near Liurbost

What we do, step by step

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 usually takes about two hours for a bath. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Why it’s worth resealing in Liurbost

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why Liurbost customers choose us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Same prices wherever you are

Common questions in Liurbost

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

How long does resealing take?

Typically a couple of hours, plus curing time.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Why does mould come back so fast?

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

Do you seal over the old sealant?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Liurbost, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Prices and what affects them

There’s no charge for travel to Liurbost. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can price the job without visiting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

When to call us in Liurbost

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Who turns up on the day
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How your room will be protected

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
