How we handle bath resealing in Norton

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths, and people most frequently call us about missing sealant behind the taps and mould you can’t clean out.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Air the room after use

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Norton

If you manage property in Norton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Norton use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

What bath resealing costs

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Most clients in Norton get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Norton: your questions answered

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Stockton-on-Tees.

Are there extra charges for Norton?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you cover the entire of Stockton-on-Tees?

The whole UK, including all of Stockton-on-Tees. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Hidden water damage
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Norton

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • An untidy old seal
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Damp near the bath

Questions to ask before you book

  • How your room will be protected
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What prep work is covered

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Norton, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
