What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  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. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

Advice

Bath resealing at your home in Morton

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Typical jobs include mould you can’t clean out and damp near the bath, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks.

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

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Common problems we fix in Morton

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Mould you cannot clean out

Before booking anyone

  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

10 questions to ask before booking

When we’d advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Movement in the bath or tray

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

Materials we repair

  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Baths
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Air the room after use

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Why it’s worth resealing in Morton

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • No extra charge for your area
