Bath resealing for Scosthrop homes

Bath resealing in Scosthrop without replacing anything

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. Typical jobs include an untidy old seal and discoloured, yellow sealant, in basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

When to call us in Scosthrop

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Unsealed corners
  • Damp near the bath

Comparing quotes

  • How the colour is matched
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What prep work is covered
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

What bath resealing costs

You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hidden water damage

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Scosthrop questions

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

What does bath resealing cost?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Let steam out after showers

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

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

Resealing in Scosthrop: why it matters

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One visit for most repairs
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
