Bath resealing near Normanton

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Normanton as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

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 we handle bath resealing in Normanton

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. If you are dealing with black mould in the sealant and silicone smeared on tiles, we can help, on baths, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Do you need bath resealing in Normanton?

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • An untidy old seal
  • Black mould in the sealant

How to compare quotes

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Air the room after use

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

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

How we price bath resealing

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Common questions in Normanton

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not right for every job, including:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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