Bath resealing in Preston

Landlord and trade work in Preston

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

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

About our bath resealing in Preston

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Whether it’s an untidy old seal and leaks at the edges, we can help, on baths, wet rooms and basins & vanity units alike.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Related advice

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hidden water damage

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Preston

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

Why reseal now?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Work done at your home or business

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Preston: your questions answered

Do you seal over the old sealant?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you work in Preston?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Preston and the rest of East Riding of Yorkshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Preston?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Signs you need bath resealing in Preston

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Gaps in the seal
  • A messy previous reseal

Before booking anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How to look after the finish
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What prep work is covered

Choosing a repair company

What bath resealing costs

Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
