Bath resealing near Moreton on Lugg

About our bath resealing in Moreton on Lugg

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Common call-outs are for missing sealant behind the taps and mould you can’t clean out, across wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours, tidy-up included.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

FAQs for Moreton on Lugg

How long does resealing take?

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

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

How soon can you come?

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

Do I have to be there?

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

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Air the room after use
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Why it’s worth resealing in Moreton on Lugg

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Movement in the bath or tray

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