Bath resealing near North Scarle

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Shower trays

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

Bath resealing in North Scarle without replacing anything

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. Whether it’s silicone coming away from the tiles and gaps by the taps, we can help.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

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

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

Do you need bath resealing in North Scarle?

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Our hiring checklist

Landlord and trade work in North Scarle

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

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures 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.

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A flexing bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles

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

Materials we repair

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

North Scarle questions

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How long does silicone take to cure?

You’ll get the curing time from us, usually around a day.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What affects the price in North Scarle

We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for North Scarle. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Something in shot to show the size

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
