Bath resealing near Lumbrook

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Bath resealing in Lumbrook, done in place

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Typical jobs include unsealed corners and gaps in the seal, across kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

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

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

When we would advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

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

Materials we repair

  • Basins & vanity units
  • Baths
  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Shower trays & enclosures

Lumbrook questions

Is my repair covered?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do the materials smell?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

How long does a reseal take?

A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Do you need bath resealing in Lumbrook?

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How the colour is matched
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
