How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take around two hours.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How we handle bath resealing in Long Lee
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. If you are dealing with black spots in the silicone and old sealant that looks dirty, we can generally put it right, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bradford.

What we are called out for in Long Lee
Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Leaks at the edges
- Mould you cannot clean out
Before booking anyone
- How the colour is matched
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Aftercare advice
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Use the extractor fan
- Let steam out after showers
- Keep the joints dry
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
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.

Can I fix it myself?
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 normally cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Why reseal now?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Prices and what affects them
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
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.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Common questions in Long Lee
What areas do you cover?

Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
