About our bath resealing in Martin Dales

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Our repair technicians work on basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms, and common reasons people contact us are black mould in the sealant and damp near the bath.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

What bath resealing costs

There is no area surcharge for Martin Dales. The price reflects:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower

If you’re in Martin Dales and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

When to call us in Martin Dales

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Air the room after use

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally around 24 hours.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

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

When we’d advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

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

What we work on

  • Basins & vanity units
  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Baths
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks

Questions from Martin Dales

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

How much does bath resealing cost in Martin Dales?

We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your LN10 postcode.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

Resealing in Martin Dales: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
