Bath resealing near Oulton

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

Bath resealing in Oulton without replacing anything

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. We work on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are gaps by the taps and leaks at the edges.

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

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  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, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice

How we price bath resealing

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairs by material

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

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

What we are called out for in Oulton

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the colour is matched
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How long it needs to cure
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
