Bath resealing in Lower Gledfield

Bath resealing in Lower Gledfield without replacing anything

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Our repair technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about an untidy old seal and black mould in the sealant.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lower Gledfield use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

What affects the price in Lower Gledfield

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Lower Gledfield. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your IV24 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

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

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Let steam out after showers

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

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes around two hours. The room is left tidy.

  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. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
