How we handle bath resealing in Raby

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. We are frequently asked to fix water getting behind the bath or tray and an untidy old seal, across baths, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Raby questions

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

How long will it take?

A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

We’ll give you the curing time.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will you leave a mess?

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

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

What we are called out for in Raby

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Gaps by the taps

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

10 questions to ask before booking

Resealing in Raby: why it matters

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
