Trusted bath resealing in Melmerby

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Bath resealing at your home in Melmerby

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours, plus curing time. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and baths, and the jobs we see most are silicone smeared on tiles and water getting behind the bath or tray.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How we price bath resealing

We charge the same across the UK, including Melmerby. The price reflects:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • Access to the area

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Resealing in Melmerby: why it matters

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • A flexing bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Melmerby questions

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Generally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do you come to Melmerby?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Melmerby for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

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

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

What we are called out for in Melmerby

Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • An untidy old seal
  • Sealant that is split or lifting

What your quote should include

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • If travel is included in the price
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
