Bath resealing in Oscroft

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

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

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

About our bath resealing in Oscroft

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Our repair technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and the jobs we see most are missing sealant behind the taps and discoloured, yellow sealant.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hidden water damage
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

FAQs for Oscroft

Do you cover Oscroft?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Oscroft from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

You will get the curing time from us.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Oscroft?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do I have to be there?

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

Do you seal over the old sealant?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

When to call us in Oscroft

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

The things clients generally mention when they call are:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Damp near the bath
  • Mould you can’t clean out

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What preparation is included
