Bath resealing for Stonesby homes

How we handle bath resealing in Stonesby

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you are dealing with leaks at the edges and gaps by the taps, we can help, on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and baths alike.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Resealing in Stonesby: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stonesby use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Letting agents often send us photos 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.

FAQs for Stonesby

What areas do you cover?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Do you come to Stonesby?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Stonesby for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

How long does a reseal take?

A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What happens after I send pictures?

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

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

When to call us in Stonesby

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Clients usually contact us about:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • An untidy old seal
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Gaps in the seal

Our hiring checklist

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to about two hours for a bath, including clearing up.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can price the job.

How we price bath resealing

We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
