Bath resealing for Stackhouse homes

Repairs by material

Shower trays

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

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

How we handle bath resealing in Stackhouse

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We regularly repair wet rooms, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are black mould in the sealant and missing sealant behind the taps.

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

Questions from Stackhouse

Do you work in Stackhouse?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Stackhouse and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

How much does bath resealing cost in Stackhouse?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Are there extra charges for Stackhouse?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes around two hours.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What affects the price in Stackhouse

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
