Bath resealing near Stanley

About our bath resealing in Stanley

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. If you are dealing with a messy previous reseal and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

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

Stanley: your questions answered

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

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.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Stanley.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

What affects the price in Stanley

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For a price in Stanley, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for about two hours for a bath. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally around 24 hours.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

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