Bath resealing in New Leake

Bath resealing in New Leake without replacing anything

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. Common call-outs are for a messy previous reseal and water getting behind the bath or tray, across shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.

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

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a couple of hours.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Air the room after use
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Resealing in New Leake: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for New Leake. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One visit for most repairs

FAQs for New Leake

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you cover the entire of Lincolnshire?

Across the UK, and that includes New Leake. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can new silicone go over old?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How long will it take?

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

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

What we are called out for in New Leake

In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Unsealed corners
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in New Leake as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
