What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for around two hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Bath resealing in Scholes, done in place

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include water getting behind the bath or tray and unsealed corners, across kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and baths.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What bath resealing costs

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your BD22 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Scholes questions

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

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

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.

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

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

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Scholes.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you come to Scholes?

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

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Air the room after use
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Use the extractor fan

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

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Scholes

For anyone letting property in or around Scholes, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What we are called out for in Scholes

Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Stained silicone
  • Gaps by the taps
  • A messy previous reseal

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How the colour is matched
  • When it can be used again
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
