Our hiring checklist

How we handle bath resealing in Lower Wellhouse

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s water getting behind the bath or tray and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can normally put it right.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Lower Wellhouse and across Kirklees.

Your questions about bath resealing in Lower Wellhouse

Is there a guarantee?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Are there extra charges for Lower Wellhouse?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Which areas do you work in?

All of Kirklees, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, a professional repair is worth it.

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A flexing bath
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What affects the price in Lower Wellhouse

We don’t charge extra for travel to Lower Wellhouse. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Air the room after use
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Use the extractor fan

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
