Bath resealing for Torbrex homes

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

How we handle bath resealing in Torbrex

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Our repair technicians work on basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most often call us about old sealant that looks dirty and mould you can’t clean out.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Prices and what affects them

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Torbrex questions

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

How soon can you come?

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

Do you come to Torbrex?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Torbrex and the rest of Stirling. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Are there extra charges for Torbrex?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Stirling.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

How to compare quotes

Landlord and trade work in Torbrex

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops
