Landlord and trade work in Tavernspite

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

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

About our bath resealing in Tavernspite

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and people most frequently call us about black mould in the sealant and a messy previous reseal.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Baths

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

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Can I fix it myself?

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

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What bath resealing costs

Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any details about the material

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Signs you need bath resealing in Tavernspite

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

Before you book anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

When we would advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a couple of hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice

Tavernspite questions

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you work in Tavernspite?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Tavernspite. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Are there extra charges for Tavernspite?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

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