Bath resealing for The Hale homes

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How we handle bath resealing in The Hale

We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops using mould-resistant silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. Whether it’s sealant that’s split or lifting and silicone smeared on tiles, we can usually put it right.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

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 kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

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

Questions from The Hale

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens next?

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

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What does bath resealing cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Do you work in The Hale?

We do. We send a technician to The Hale for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

When to call us in The Hale

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Damp near the bath
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Gaps by the taps

Before booking anyone

  • How the colour is matched
  • What preparation is included
  • How soon you can use it again
  • If travel is included in the price

Choosing a repair company

Why it’s worth resealing in The Hale

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

What affects the price in The Hale

We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

If you are in The Hale and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
