Bath resealing for Ruloe homes

Bath resealing in Ruloe, done in place

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. If you are dealing with gaps in the seal and black mould in the sealant, we can help, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Ruloe and across Cheshire West and Chester.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a couple of hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available

FAQs for Ruloe

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Do you cover the entire of Cheshire West and Chester?

We cover the entire UK, including Ruloe and the rest of Cheshire West and Chester. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

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

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Resealing in Ruloe: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

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

Honest limits

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Hidden water damage
  • A flexing bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

What affects the price in Ruloe

We do not charge extra for travel to Ruloe. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
