Bath resealing in Montgomerieston

Bath resealing at your home in Montgomerieston

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. We work on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and people most often call us about missing sealant behind the taps and an untidy old seal.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Montgomerieston as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

When to call us in Montgomerieston

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How your room will be protected
  • How the colour is matched
  • How long it needs to cure

Choosing a repair company

How we price bath resealing

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

How to look after the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

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

FAQs for Montgomerieston

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Can you quote from pictures?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

How long before I can shower?

You will get the curing time from us.

Do you work in Montgomerieston?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Montgomerieston for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What do you need from me?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

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