Bath resealing for Rockbeare homes

Bath resealing at your home in Rockbeare

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. We work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are silicone coming away from the tiles and stained silicone.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Honest limits

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

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

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

Common problems we fix in Rockbeare

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Damp near the bath
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Mould you can’t clean out

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take around two hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How we price bath resealing

We do not charge extra for travel to Rockbeare. The price comes down to:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

If you’re in Rockbeare and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Questions from Rockbeare

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you work in Rockbeare?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Rockbeare for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Rockbeare?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
