Do you need bath resealing in Lount?

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

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

  • Unsealed corners
  • Stained silicone
  • Damp near the bath
  • Black mould in the sealant

About our bath resealing in Lount

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. If you’re dealing with silicone smeared on tiles and stained silicone, we can typically put it right, on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

How to care for the repair

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

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Landlord and trade work in Lount

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lount use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

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

Prices and what affects them

You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash

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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes around two hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  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. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

Lount: your questions answered

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you work in Lount?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Lount and the rest of Leicestershire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Do you seal over the old sealant?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your LE65 postcode.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is resealing worth it?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Most jobs done in one visit
