Bath resealing in Tetley without replacing anything

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you’re dealing with unsealed corners and silicone smeared on tiles, we can help.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in North Lincolnshire.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

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

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

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

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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 generally the cheaper route.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  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. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Why reseal now?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

What bath resealing costs

There is no area surcharge for Tetley. The price reflects:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Tetley

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

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Leaks at the edges
  • An untidy old seal
  • Gaps in the seal

Questions to ask before booking

Choosing a repair company

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

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

Questions from Tetley

How long does silicone take to cure?

We’ll give you the curing time, normally around a day.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
