Bath resealing for Saxilby homes

Bath resealing in Saxilby, done in place

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Our technicians work on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are discoloured, yellow sealant and a messy previous reseal.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lincolnshire.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

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

Shower trays

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

Saxilby: your questions answered

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time.

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

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Do you come to Saxilby?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Saxilby. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What a repair cannot fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Saxilby

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Saxilby as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

What affects the price in Saxilby

We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Saxilby. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
