How we handle bath resealing in New Leeds

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. We work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and people most often call us about discoloured, yellow sealant and silicone coming away from the tiles.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Questions from New Leeds

How long does silicone take to cure?

We’ll give you the curing time, typically around a day.

Do you cover New Leeds?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to New Leeds. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you cover the entire of Aberdeenshire?

We cover the whole UK, including New Leeds and the rest of Aberdeenshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

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

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.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What a repair cannot fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A flexing bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.

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

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  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. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  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
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

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

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

What affects the price in New Leeds

You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Most clients in New Leeds get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
