Bath resealing at your home in Stainborough

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s gaps by the taps and black mould in the sealant, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we are called out for in Stainborough

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • An untidy old seal
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Mould you cannot clean out

Choosing a repair company

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Baths

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to about two hours for a bath, tidy-up included.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Questions from Stainborough

Do you seal over the old sealant?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

How long does silicone take to cure?

Typically after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

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.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Landlord and trade work in Stainborough

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Keep the joints dry

Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

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

What bath resealing costs

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

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

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
