Bath resealing at your home in Saundby

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Typical jobs include black spots in the silicone and discoloured, yellow sealant, across baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Air the room after use
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Keep the joints dry

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally around 24 hours.

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.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

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

What happens on the day

Once we are 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 a couple of hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

10 questions to ask before booking

Saundby: your questions answered

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

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

We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DN22 postcode.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How long does silicone take to cure?

You will get the curing time from us, generally around a day.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

We don’t charge extra for travel to Saundby. The price comes down to:

  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
