About our bath resealing in Lyne of Skene

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Common call-outs are for gaps by the taps and gaps in the seal, across baths, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

For anyone letting property in or around Lyne of Skene, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

How we price bath resealing

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

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

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Air the room after use

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally around 24 hours.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Lyne of Skene: your questions answered

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What does bath resealing cost?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: 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 when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  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, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
