About our bath resealing in Owton Manor

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair baths, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about black mould in the sealant and gaps in the seal.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Owton Manor: your questions answered

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

How much does bath resealing cost in Owton Manor?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Related advice

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Keep bottles off the joints

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

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Prices and what affects them

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Owton Manor. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash

If you are in Owton Manor and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Landlord and trade work in Owton Manor

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Owton Manor use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

When to call us in Owton Manor

Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Stained silicone
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Unsealed corners

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How the colour is matched
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
