Trusted bath resealing in Markethill

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

About our bath resealing in Markethill

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We’re frequently asked to fix water getting behind the bath or tray and silicone coming away from the tiles, in wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What bath resealing costs

There’s no area surcharge for Markethill. The price reflects:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can price the job.

Signs you need bath resealing in Markethill

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

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Unsealed corners
  • Damp near the bath

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

FAQs for Markethill

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

How much does bath resealing cost in Markethill?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Markethill is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Markethill.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is resealing worth it?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Markethill. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • No need to remove anything
  • One price list for the entire UK

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
