Bath resealing in Newtownabbey

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Bath resealing in Newtownabbey, done in place

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. We regularly repair baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and common reasons people get in touch are an untidy old seal and old sealant that looks dirty.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a couple of hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Common questions in Newtownabbey

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Newtownabbey.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

How long does silicone take to cure?

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

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Why it’s worth resealing in Newtownabbey

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why Newtownabbey clients choose us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Everything repaired in place
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Same prices wherever you are

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
