Need bath resealing in Poringland?

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, including clearing up.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  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

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Bath resealing in Poringland 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 work on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are black mould in the sealant and leaks at the edges.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Questions from Poringland

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time.

Is there any odour?

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

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
