Why reseal now?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Bath resealing in Ravenstone, done in place

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Common call-outs are for sealant that’s split or lifting and stained silicone, across basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Ravenstone and across Leicestershire.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

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

What bath resealing costs

We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode

If you are in Ravenstone and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ravenstone

For anyone letting property in or around Ravenstone, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What we cannot put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Ravenstone: your questions answered

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How much does bath resealing cost in Ravenstone?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

The process

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It generally takes about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price
