What a repair cannot fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

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

What we work on

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

Signs you need bath resealing in Rothienorman

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Unsealed corners
  • Damp near the bath

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What happens if they find more damage

How to compare quotes

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

What bath resealing costs

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Rothienorman. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  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

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know about parking or access

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Most jobs done in one visit

See our prices page.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Use the extractor fan

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

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Rothienorman questions

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How long will it take?

Normally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

Can new silicone go over old?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Do you work in Rothienorman?

We do. We send a technician to Rothienorman for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Normally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
