About our bath resealing in Thornton-le-Beans

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Whether it’s damp near the bath and gaps by the taps, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Resealing in Thornton-le-Beans: 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. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What happens on the day

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

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Your questions about bath resealing in Thornton-le-Beans

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

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

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

What we are called out for in Thornton-le-Beans

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Look out for these signs:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Unsealed corners
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting

Comparing quotes

  • What preparation is included
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

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

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A flexing bath
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
