Why reseal now?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. 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.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No need to remove anything
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

How we handle bath resealing in Lower Hopton

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Common call-outs are for stained silicone and water getting behind the bath or tray, in baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Signs you need bath resealing in Lower Hopton

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Unsealed corners
  • Mould you cannot clean out

10 questions to ask before booking

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lower Hopton

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

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.

What bath resealing costs

There’s no area surcharge for Lower Hopton. The price reflects:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Lower Hopton questions

Will there be a smell?

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

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

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

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you come to Lower Hopton?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Lower Hopton. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Make sure the area is dry

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
