Bath resealing for Staden homes

About our bath resealing in Staden

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Typical jobs include black mould in the sealant and damp near the bath, in baths, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Staden and across Derbyshire.

What bath resealing costs

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

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a couple of hours.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Air the room after use
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What we’re called out for in Staden

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

The things clients normally mention when they call include:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Before you book anyone

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How your room will be protected
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

10 questions to ask before booking

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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.

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hidden water damage
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Staden questions

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

What do you need from me?

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

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
