Bath resealing in Swinderby

Is resealing worth it?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Bath resealing at your home in Swinderby

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We’re frequently asked to fix stained silicone and silicone coming away from the tiles, in shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Swinderby and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Open a window after bathing

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.

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

Repairs by material

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

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

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • A flexing bath
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Your questions about bath resealing in Swinderby

When can you do it?

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

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

How long does silicone take to cure?

We will give you the curing time.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Swinderby. Prices do not change with location.

What bath resealing costs

We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

What we’re called out for in Swinderby

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Stained silicone
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • A messy previous reseal

Questions to ask before you book

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the colour is matched
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
