Resealing in Nether Heage: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

About our bath resealing in Nether Heage

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for gaps by the taps and discoloured, yellow sealant, across wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Derbyshire.

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  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

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

What affects the price in Nether Heage

Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Do you need bath resealing in Nether Heage?

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether the price covers travel

Nether Heage questions

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can new silicone go over old?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

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

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Wet rooms
  • Basins & vanity units
