Bath resealing near Longford

Bath resealing at your home in Longford

We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, plus curing time. We work on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are silicone coming away from the tiles and missing sealant behind the taps.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Common problems we fix in Longford

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Black mould in the sealant

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What prep work is covered
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What bath resealing costs

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

  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Longford, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours, tidy-up included.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

If you’re in Longford and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Longford as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Resealing in Longford: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Fixed prices from your photos

What your bath or shower is made of matters

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.

Longford: your questions answered

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you charge for travel?

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

What does bath resealing cost?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
