Trusted bath resealing in Stockton-on-Tees

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

About our bath resealing in Stockton-on-Tees

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. If you are dealing with black mould in the sealant and stained silicone, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Stockton-on-Tees questions

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

How long will it take?

A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your TS19 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
