Looe questions

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Looe?

We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PL13 postcode.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

About our bath resealing in Looe

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We’re frequently asked to fix unsealed corners and stained silicone, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths.

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

For anyone letting property in or around Looe, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Let steam out after showers

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

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

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a couple of hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

What we’re called out for in Looe

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

The things clients typically mention when they call are:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
