Trusted bath resealing in Seghill

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

About our bath resealing in Seghill

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. We are frequently asked to fix unsealed corners and black mould in the sealant, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Seghill and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hidden water damage
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Seghill questions

Do you cover the whole of Northumberland?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How long will it take?

A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Signs you need bath resealing in Seghill

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

Look out for these signs:

  • Stained silicone
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

What to look for in a quote

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What preparation is included
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Work for landlords and builders

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

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What affects the price in Seghill

Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
