Bath resealing in Scissett

Common problems we fix in Scissett

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

People typically call us when they notice something like this:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Black spots in the silicone

How to compare quotes

Bath resealing in Scissett, 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, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and common reasons people contact us are a messy previous reseal and gaps in the seal.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Scissett as everywhere else we work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Questions from Scissett

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you work in Scissett?

We do. We send a technician to Scissett for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How do I book?

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

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

When a repair is not the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

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

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it

For a price in Scissett, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Landlord and trade work in Scissett

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Scissett use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Kirklees and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a couple of hours, tidy-up included.

  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

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
