Trusted bath resealing in Northern Quarter

Landlord and trade work in Northern Quarter

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

If you manage property in Northern Quarter, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Bath resealing at your home in Northern Quarter

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We’re frequently asked to fix sealant that’s split or lifting and gaps by the taps, on baths, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Northern Quarter and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Common problems we fix in Northern Quarter

Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

Before you book anyone

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What happens if they find more damage

10 questions to ask before you book

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes around two hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Hidden water damage

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Your questions about bath resealing in Northern Quarter

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.

How much does bath resealing cost in Northern Quarter?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

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

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

How long does a reseal take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
