Bath resealing in Old Brigg

Bath resealing in Old Brigg without replacing anything

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Whether it’s gaps by the taps and black spots in the silicone, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

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

What bath resealing costs

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What a repair can’t fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Old Brigg: your questions answered

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

How long does a reseal take?

A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you come to Old Brigg?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Old Brigg and the rest of Norfolk. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What we’re called out for in Old Brigg

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Damp near the bath
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Mould you can’t clean out

Questions to ask before booking

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What preparation is included

Our hiring checklist

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow around two hours.

  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. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

If you are in Old Brigg and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Why it’s worth resealing in Old Brigg

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
