Bath resealing near Oundle

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Oundle as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Bath resealing in Oundle without replacing anything

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they keep water out. We’re often asked to fix black spots in the silicone and silicone smeared on tiles, in basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures.

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

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

What affects the price in Oundle

There is no charge for travel to Oundle. The price comes down to:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Details of any past repairs

Most clients in Oundle get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What we’re called out for in Oundle

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Stained silicone
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Leaks at the edges
