Bath resealing near Millbridge

Bath resealing in Millbridge without replacing anything

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are gaps in the seal and an untidy old seal.

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

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

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

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Why reseal now?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How it works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Signs you need bath resealing in Millbridge

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Stained silicone
  • Damp near the bath
  • Mould you can’t clean out

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Aftercare advice
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How soon you can use it again

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Millbridge questions

How long does resealing take?

Generally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Usually because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Do you cover the entire of Kirklees?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Millbridge. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

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

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
