Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

About our bath resealing in Lusby

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Common call-outs are for gaps in the seal and an untidy old seal, in baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

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

Baths

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

Signs you need bath resealing in Lusby

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Customers normally contact us about:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Sealant that is split or lifting

Choosing a repair company

Prices and what affects them

You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Lusby. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lusby as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Lusby questions

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Lusby.

Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
