Bath resealing for Lower Failand homes

Landlord and trade work in Lower Failand

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Bath resealing at your home in Lower Failand

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We’re frequently asked to fix black mould in the sealant and silicone coming away from the tiles, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bristol.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Use the extractor fan

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

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.

Common questions in Lower Failand

When can I use the bath after resealing?

We’ll give you the curing time.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

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

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Do you work in Lower Failand?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Lower Failand for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you cover the entire of Bristol?

Across the UK, and that includes Lower Failand. Prices don’t change with location.

How we price bath resealing

Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • The material

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Lower Failand, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Resealing in Lower Failand: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

See our prices page.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow about two hours for a bath, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice

When to call us in Lower Failand

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Comparing quotes

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How changes to the job are handled

10 questions to ask before you book

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

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

Surfaces we repair
