Why it’s worth resealing in Lydford Fair Place

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

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

Can I fix it myself?

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

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lydford Fair Place as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Signs you need bath resealing in Lydford Fair Place

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Sealant that is split or lifting

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Lydford Fair Place

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For a price in Lydford Fair Place, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

How it works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

What we cannot put right

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Questions from Lydford Fair Place

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your TA11 postcode.

How long before I can shower?

Typically after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
