Bath resealing for Skellow homes

What we’re called out for in Skellow

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

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

Choosing a repair company

Bath resealing in Skellow, done in place

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Typical jobs include leaks at the edges and discoloured, yellow sealant, in shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and wet rooms.

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

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Is resealing worth it?

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. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A flexing bath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take about two hours for a bath.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

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

Prices and what affects them

You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Skellow. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Common questions in Skellow

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do you come to Skellow?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Skellow from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can landlords book you?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
