About our bath resealing in Low Crompton

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you’re dealing with discoloured, yellow sealant and unsealed corners, we can normally put it right, on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Common questions in Low Crompton

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
