About our bath resealing in Stenson

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and common reasons people contact us are black spots in the silicone and missing sealant behind the taps.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Why reseal now?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why us?

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Work done at your home or business

When we would advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

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

What we work on

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

How we price bath resealing

There is no area surcharge for Stenson. The price reflects:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

If you’re in Stenson and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

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

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Questions from Stenson

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Do you cover the entire of Derbyshire?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Stenson. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your DE73 postcode.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

When to call us in Stenson

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Stained silicone
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Unsealed corners

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How the colour is matched
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
