For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lofthouse Gate use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

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

How we handle bath resealing in Lofthouse Gate

We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and baths, and common reasons people contact us are water getting behind the bath or tray and old sealant that looks dirty.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Let steam out after showers

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hidden water damage

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

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Lofthouse Gate

We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Your questions about bath resealing in Lofthouse Gate

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Do you work in Lofthouse Gate?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Lofthouse Gate and the rest of Leeds. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Do you cover the whole of Leeds?

Everywhere in the UK, Lofthouse Gate included. Travel is included in the price.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  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. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
