How we handle bath resealing in Rawnsley

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We are often asked to fix gaps by the taps and discoloured, yellow sealant, on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Questions from Rawnsley

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Typically after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Staffordshire.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Landlord and trade work in Rawnsley

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Staffordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What bath resealing costs

You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Rawnsley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any details about the material

For a price in Rawnsley, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

When to call us in Rawnsley

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Customers usually contact us about:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • An untidy old seal

Before booking anyone

  • When it can be used again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How the room is protected while they work

Choosing a repair company

When a repair is not the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A flexing bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles

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

What we work on

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

Why reseal now?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
