How we handle bath resealing in Swanland

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. Whether it’s damp near the bath and black mould in the sealant, we can help.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Why it’s worth resealing in Swanland

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why Swanland customers choose us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Work done at your home or business

What affects the price in Swanland

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

If you are in Swanland and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

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

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Questions from Swanland

Do you seal over the old sealant?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How long before I can shower?

You’ll get the curing time from us.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

How long does resealing take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Do you cover the whole of East Riding of Yorkshire?

We work UK-wide, so Swanland is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

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

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

Landlord and trade work in Swanland

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
