Bath resealing for Rodsley homes

Rodsley questions

Do you come to Rodsley?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Rodsley from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

How long does resealing take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Do you cover the entire of Derbyshire?

All of Derbyshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

About our bath resealing in Rodsley

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. If you are dealing with missing sealant behind the taps and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can help, on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Rodsley as everywhere else we work.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep the joints dry

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Is resealing worth it?

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A flexing bath
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Rodsley

You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • The material

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size

Most clients in Rodsley get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
