Bath resealing in North Anston

Bath resealing in North Anston, done in place

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and common reasons people get in touch are an untidy old seal and black mould in the sealant.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in North Anston as everywhere else we work.

Questions from North Anston

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How long does resealing take?

Generally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Do you cover the entire of Rotherham?

All of Rotherham, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Air the room after use
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

What bath resealing costs

There is no charge for travel to North Anston. The price comes down to:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

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

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Damp near the bath

Our hiring checklist

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around North Anston, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
