Trusted bath resealing in Lumby

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

About our bath resealing in Lumby

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms, and common reasons people get in touch are a messy previous reseal and stained silicone.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Do you need bath resealing in Lumby?

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Unsealed corners
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

How to compare quotes

What bath resealing costs

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Air the room after use

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Why it’s worth resealing in Lumby

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • One price list for the whole UK

Take a look at our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lumby

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Lumby questions

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

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.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

We’ll give you the curing time.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

What a repair cannot fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

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