How we handle bath resealing in North Cockerington

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Whether it’s water getting behind the bath or tray and gaps by the taps, we can help, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths alike.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lincolnshire.

How to compare quotes

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why North Cockerington customers choose us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

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

Common questions in North Cockerington

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Normally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes about two hours for a bath. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What bath resealing costs

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

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once

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

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know

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

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
