Need bath resealing in Tetney Lock?

Bath resealing at your home in Tetney Lock

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. If you are dealing with black mould in the sealant and unsealed corners, we can help, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Tetney Lock: your questions answered

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Tetney Lock?

Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DN36 postcode.

Can new silicone go over old?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Air the room after use
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.

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.

What affects the price in Tetney Lock

We do not charge extra for travel to Tetney Lock. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Resealing in Tetney Lock: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

Why Tetney Lock clients choose us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Do you need bath resealing in Tetney Lock?

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • A messy previous reseal
