About our bath resealing in Stanley

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, baths and wet rooms, and people most often call us about discoloured, yellow sealant and silicone smeared on tiles.

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

When to call us in Stanley

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Unsealed corners

Before you book anyone

  • How the colour is matched
  • Aftercare advice
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Our hiring checklist

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow around two hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Stanley questions

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

What does bath resealing cost?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

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

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

How we price bath resealing

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Details of any past repairs

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stanley as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
