Bath resealing in Over Kellet

Bath resealing in Over Kellet, done in place

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Our repair technicians work on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and people most frequently call us about mould you can’t clean out and missing sealant behind the taps.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A flexing bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

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

Materials we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Over Kellet

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Over Kellet questions

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Do you cover the entire of Lancashire?

We cover the entire UK, including Over Kellet and the rest of Lancashire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Dry the seal after bathing

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

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

  • Unsealed corners
  • Stained silicone
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Damp near the bath

What your quote should include

  • How long it needs to cure

  • Who will actually do the work

10 questions to ask before you book

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

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

What bath resealing costs

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area

No two jobs are quite the same, 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.

Send pictures for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the area is dry
