Why it’s worth resealing in Tallentire

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Work done at your home or business
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Bath resealing in Tallentire without replacing anything

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include discoloured, yellow sealant and missing sealant behind the taps, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and shower trays & enclosures.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a couple of hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Make sure the area is dry

Advice

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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repairs by material

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.

How we price bath resealing

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Hidden water damage

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common questions in Tallentire

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do you cover the entire of Cumbria?

Everywhere in the UK, Tallentire included. Travel is included in the price.

Will there be a smell?

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

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

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

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What we are called out for in Tallentire

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Stained silicone
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Gaps by the taps

Before booking anyone

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How long it needs to cure

10 questions to ask before you book

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, 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.
