Need bath resealing in Morestead?

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Open a window after bathing

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

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

How we handle bath resealing in Morestead

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. We’re frequently asked to fix discoloured, yellow sealant and missing sealant behind the taps, across basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Why it’s worth resealing in Morestead

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. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  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 run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

Advice

How we price bath resealing

You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Morestead. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we are called out for in Morestead

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Damp near the bath

Our hiring checklist

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Shower trays

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

Morestead: your questions answered

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Morestead?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
