About our bath resealing in Longdon on Tern

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’re often asked to fix discoloured, yellow sealant and sealant that’s split or lifting, across wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

When to call us in Longdon on Tern

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Unsealed corners
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Why reseal now?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Common questions in Longdon on Tern

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can you quote from photos?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Telford and Wrekin.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

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

Different materials, different repairs

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, so the joint is at its widest.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes around two hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

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

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the area is dry

Get a quote

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Related advice

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

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