About our bath resealing in Parkgate

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. Whether it’s black mould in the sealant and damp near the bath, we can typically put it right, on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms alike.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

When to call us in Parkgate

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

  • Damp near the bath
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Stained silicone

Before you book anyone

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What prep work is covered
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Our hiring checklist

Is resealing worth it?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Parkgate. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why Parkgate clients choose us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We leave the room as we found it

Repairs by material

Shower trays

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What affects the price in Parkgate

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

  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Common questions in Parkgate

Do the materials smell?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

How long does a reseal take?

Normally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

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. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
