Can I fix it myself?

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

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

Bath resealing in Shepley without replacing anything

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Our technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about old sealant that looks dirty and missing sealant behind the taps.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Shepley

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Air the room after use
  • Keep the joints dry

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

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Shepley, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Why it’s worth resealing in Shepley

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One visit for most repairs

Do you need bath resealing in Shepley?

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is matched
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What prep work is covered

Our hiring checklist

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Your questions about bath resealing in Shepley

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
