Bath resealing in Netherfields

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hidden water damage
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

How we handle bath resealing in Netherfields

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are leaks at the edges and gaps in the seal.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a couple of hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  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, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Signs you need bath resealing in Netherfields

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Before booking anyone

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

  • What protection goes down before work starts

How to compare quotes

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

What bath resealing costs

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

FAQs for Netherfields

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. 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.

Do you come to Netherfields?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Netherfields from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Give the seal a regular clean

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

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Netherfields

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Middlesbrough and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
