Bath resealing for Prees homes

Common questions in Prees

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Are there extra charges for Prees?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do the materials smell?

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

How we handle bath resealing in Prees

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are unsealed corners and leaks at the edges.

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.

When to call us in Prees

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Unsealed corners
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Black spots in the silicone

What to look for in a quote

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What prep work is covered
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How the room is protected while they work

Choosing a repair company

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

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

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

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

What affects the price in Prees

There’s no charge for travel to Prees. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Resealing in Prees: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One visit for most repairs

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear the area around the damage

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

  • Hidden water damage
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
