Bath resealing for Stapleford homes

How we handle bath resealing in Stapleford

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. We work on baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are black mould in the sealant and silicone coming away from the tiles.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Stapleford as everywhere else we work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A flexing bath

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

What we work on

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

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

When to call us in Stapleford

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

Common reasons people in Stapleford contact us are:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Gaps in the seal

Questions to ask before booking

  • Aftercare advice
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stapleford as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take around two hours.

  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, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

What bath resealing costs

There is no area surcharge for Stapleford. What changes the price is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your NG9 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Your questions about bath resealing in Stapleford

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 rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do I have to be there?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

How long does silicone take to cure?

You’ll get the curing time from us.
