Why it’s worth resealing in Scotton

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

About our bath resealing in Scotton

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We are frequently asked to fix gaps by the taps and gaps in the seal, in kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

If you manage property in Scotton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Hollow or loose tiles

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

Surfaces we repair

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

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

What affects the price in Scotton

We do not charge extra for travel to Scotton. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Common problems we fix in Scotton

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Stained silicone
  • An untidy old seal
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

What to look for in a quote

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How soon you can use it again

FAQs for Scotton

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

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

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Scotton included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can new silicone go over old?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
