Bath resealing near Shelton

Bath resealing in Shelton without replacing anything

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Whether it’s silicone coming away from the tiles and damp near the bath, we can typically put it right.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Shropshire.

Common questions in Shelton

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Does someone need to be in?

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

How do I stop mould in sealant?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

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

Can I fix it myself?

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 normally cheaper.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Why it’s worth resealing in Shelton

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • No need to remove anything
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Landlord and trade work in Shelton

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shelton as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  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

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Shelton, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

What bath resealing costs

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

What we cannot put right

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

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Shelton

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Customers usually contact us about:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Stained silicone
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

Before booking anyone

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
