Trusted bath resealing in Storrs

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Use the extractor fan

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

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

How we handle bath resealing in Storrs

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for a messy previous reseal and gaps in the seal, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Sheffield.

What a repair cannot fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Common questions in Storrs

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can you quote from photos?

Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you cover the whole of Sheffield?

We cover the entire UK, including Storrs and the rest of Sheffield. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

When to call us in Storrs

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

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Unsealed corners

Before you book anyone

  • If travel is included in the price
  • What prep work is covered
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • When it can be used again

10 questions to ask before booking

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Can I fix it myself?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Storrs

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Storrs as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Why it’s worth resealing in Storrs

Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Storrs. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
