Bath resealing in Millington, done in place

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Typical jobs include gaps by the taps and stained silicone, across baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Millington and across East Riding of Yorkshire.

10 questions to ask before you book

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes around two hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Millington use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

What we can’t put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hidden water damage

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Questions from Millington

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

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

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

How long does resealing take?

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Why it’s worth resealing in Millington

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
