How we handle bath resealing in Tillington

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We are often asked to fix an untidy old seal and discoloured, yellow sealant, across kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and baths.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

Questions from Tillington

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

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Tillington.

How long before I can shower?

Normally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

Are there extra charges for Tillington?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you cover Tillington?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Tillington. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hidden water damage
  • A flexing bath

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

What we work on

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

Why it’s worth resealing in Tillington

Resealing costs very little. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our prices page.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What bath resealing costs

There’s no area surcharge for Tillington. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit

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

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your HR4 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Signs you need bath resealing in Tillington

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Questions to ask before you book

  • What prep work is covered
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Baths

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

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow around two hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

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

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
