Bath resealing near Mytholm

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

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

About our bath resealing in Mytholm

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. We’re often asked to fix black mould in the sealant and discoloured, yellow sealant, across kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and wet rooms.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take around two hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What bath resealing costs

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Mytholm. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 will not last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Landlord and trade work in Mytholm

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mytholm use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Air the room after use
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Common questions in Mytholm

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can pets and children be at home?

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.

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 before the end of a tenancy.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

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