What we’re called out for in Nis

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Black spots in the silicone

Questions to ask before booking

10 questions to ask before you book

How we handle bath resealing in Nis

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Typical jobs include old sealant that looks dirty and sealant that’s split or lifting, in shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Nis

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

How it works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

FAQs for Nis

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How we price bath resealing

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

  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll 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
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Why reseal now?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
