Bath resealing for Monkton homes

How we handle bath resealing in Monkton

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Whether it’s gaps by the taps and black spots in the silicone, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

What affects the price in Monkton

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How to look after the repair

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

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Work for landlords and builders

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

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Do you need bath resealing in Monkton?

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

Common reasons people in Monkton contact us include:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Damp near the bath

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How your room will be protected

Our hiring checklist

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Questions from Monkton

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
