Bath resealing in Old Rhosrobin

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for around two hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  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

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

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

Bath resealing at your home in Old Rhosrobin

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Common call-outs are for an untidy old seal and old sealant that looks dirty, on baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.

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

What bath resealing costs

You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

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

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

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

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

Common questions in Old Rhosrobin

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

How long does resealing take?

Usually a couple of hours, plus curing time.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Do you need bath resealing in Old Rhosrobin?

Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Unsealed corners
  • Black spots in the silicone

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How the colour is matched

10 questions to ask before you book

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Baths

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

What we cannot put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

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