Bath resealing near North Roe

Repairs by material

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

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

Bath resealing in North Roe, done in place

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. If you are dealing with leaks at the edges and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can help, on baths, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in North Roe, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Why it’s worth resealing in North Roe

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Compared with replacing, 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 book with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

What bath resealing costs

Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for North Roe. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we are called out for in North Roe

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Black spots in the silicone

Comparing quotes

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • When it can be used again

10 questions to ask before you book

Questions from North Roe

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including North Roe and the rest of the Shetland Islands. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

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

Are there extra charges for North Roe?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
