Bath resealing near Newsome

Bath resealing at your home in Newsome

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Whether it’s black mould in the sealant and missing sealant behind the taps, we can typically put it right.

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

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

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.

Landlord and trade work in Newsome

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

If you manage property in Newsome, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Resealing in Newsome: why it matters

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. We do not add 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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

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

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash

You don’t 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.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are 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 cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
