DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

How we handle bath resealing in Percy Main

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. We work on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about damp near the bath and black spots in the silicone.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

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

What we are called out for in Percy Main

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

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • An untidy old seal
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Questions to ask before booking

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

10 questions to ask before booking

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Your questions about bath resealing in Percy Main

Are you accredited?

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

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Resealing in Percy Main: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Everything repaired in place
