Bath resealing in Mowsley

Why it’s worth resealing in Mowsley

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A fixed quote before booking

How we handle bath resealing in Mowsley

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. We work on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths, and common reasons people get in touch are discoloured, yellow sealant and gaps in the seal.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Mowsley and across Leicestershire.

Choosing a repair company

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Baths

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Mowsley

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For anyone letting property in or around Mowsley, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Common questions in Mowsley

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. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

We’ll give you the curing time.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Leicestershire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

How long does a reseal take?

A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Give the seal a regular clean

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

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
