Common questions in Smeatharpe

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

How long before I can shower?

We will give you the curing time.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Do you come to Smeatharpe?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Smeatharpe. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Bath resealing at your home in Smeatharpe

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. Our technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and common reasons people get in touch are stained silicone and unsealed corners.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

What affects the price in Smeatharpe

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

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a couple of hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Get a quote

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Air the room after use

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Do you need bath resealing in Smeatharpe?

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Damp near the bath

What your quote should include

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
