Bath resealing at your home in Low Moorsley

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed using mould-resistant silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. Whether it’s sealant that’s split or lifting and gaps by the taps, we can help, on wet rooms, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.

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

When to call us in Low Moorsley

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Damp near the bath

What your quote should include

  • What prep work is covered
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Aftercare advice
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

10 questions to ask before booking

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.

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

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

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.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hidden water damage

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

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.

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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Prices and what affects them

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

The process

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a couple of hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
