Resealing in Lugwardine: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Everything repaired in place

What we’re called out for in Lugwardine

No sealant lasts for ever. 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:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

What your quote should include

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the colour is matched

Choosing a repair company

Questions from Lugwardine

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Do you cover Lugwardine?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Lugwardine and the rest of Herefordshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

What does bath resealing cost?

We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes around two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

There is 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 reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Air the room after use
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Keep the joints dry

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

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What bath resealing costs

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs

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.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
