Bath resealing in Morcott

FAQs for Morcott

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

How long does resealing take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

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. The rest of the house is unaffected.

About our bath resealing in Morcott

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. We regularly repair wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and people most often call us about a messy previous reseal and silicone coming away from the tiles.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A flexing bath

Common problems we fix in Morcott

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

Common reasons people in Morcott contact us include:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Unsealed corners
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Mould you cannot clean out

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your LE15 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

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

Resealing in Morcott: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Prices and what affects them

There’s no area surcharge for Morcott. What changes the price is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs

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