Trusted bath resealing in Portrush

Landlord and trade work in Portrush

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

How we handle bath resealing in Portrush

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you’re dealing with discoloured, yellow sealant and black spots in the silicone, we can help, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why book with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Can I fix it myself?

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 typically cheaper.

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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A flexing bath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

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.

Baths

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

FAQs for Portrush

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How long does a reseal take?

A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do you cover the whole of Coleraine?

We cover the entire UK, including Portrush and the rest of Coleraine. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Do you come to Portrush?

We do. We send a technician to Portrush for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Prices and what affects them

We charge the same across the UK, including Portrush. What changes the price is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can price the job.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  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. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Portrush, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
