Bath resealing in Ringland

About our bath resealing in Ringland

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed. Most jobs take a couple of hours, plus curing time. We are often asked to fix stained silicone and silicone coming away from the tiles, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we’re called out for in Ringland

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

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

What to look for in a quote

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

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

How we price bath resealing

Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

When we’d advise against a repair

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A flexing bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Repairs by material

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The process

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  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

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
