Trusted bath resealing in Reepham

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Bath resealing at your home in Reepham

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Common call-outs are for leaks at the edges and stained silicone, across kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and baths.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lincolnshire.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Everything repaired in place

Repairs by material

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Signs you need bath resealing in Reepham

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

The things customers normally mention when they call include:

  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Damp near the bath
  • Unsealed corners

Comparing quotes

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What preparation is included

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What affects the price in Reepham

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

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of

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 play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your LN3 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Air the room after use
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area 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. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  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

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

Your questions about bath resealing in Reepham

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

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.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Do you cover the whole of Lincolnshire?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Reepham. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
