Trusted bath resealing in Ranmoor

Bath resealing in Ranmoor, done in place

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours, plus curing time. Our repair technicians work on basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are an untidy old seal and unsealed corners.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to about two hours for a bath, tidy-up included.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it 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.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Why it’s worth resealing in Ranmoor

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Take a look at our prices page.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Air the room after use
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Signs you need bath resealing in Ranmoor

Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Stained silicone

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What preparation is included
  • How soon you can use it again
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Ranmoor questions

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Do you come to Ranmoor?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Ranmoor and the rest of Sheffield. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

What bath resealing costs

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material

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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

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, and the work is guaranteed.
