Bath resealing near Methlick

About our bath resealing in Methlick

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Whether it’s damp near the bath and missing sealant behind the taps, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Methlick as everywhere else we work.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

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

Resealing in Methlick: why it matters

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It generally takes about two hours for a bath, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  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 if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

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

Prices and what affects them

You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For a price in Methlick, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Common problems we fix in Methlick

In time, even good sealant discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

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

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Gaps by the taps

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How to look after the finish
  • What prep work is covered

Common questions in Methlick

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

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

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How long does a reseal take?

A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can new silicone go over old?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

You’ll get the curing time from us, usually around a day.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Open a window after bathing

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

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
