Bath resealing near Low Holdworth

How we handle bath resealing in Low Holdworth

We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops using mould-resistant silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. If you are dealing with black spots in the silicone and an untidy old seal, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common questions in Low Holdworth

How do I book?

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

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

How long does a reseal take?

Normally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Air the room after use
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Work for landlords and builders

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

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a couple of hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

When we’d advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A flexing bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Wet rooms
  • Baths
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Shower trays & enclosures

What bath resealing costs

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
