Need bath resealing in Marton?

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Bath resealing at your home in Marton

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Whether it’s old sealant that looks dirty and black mould in the sealant, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

What bath resealing costs

We do not charge extra for travel to Marton. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Do you need bath resealing in Marton?

Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Leaks at the edges

Before you book anyone

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • When it can be used again

FAQs for Marton

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

How long does a reseal take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do you work in Marton?

We do. Technicians travel to Marton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Why does mould come back so fast?

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

How soon can you come?

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

Will you leave a mess?

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

Resealing in Marton: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why book with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

Landlord and trade work in Marton

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

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow around two hours.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
