Bath resealing in Trowell

Bath resealing in Trowell, done in place

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. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are sealant that’s split or lifting and mould you can’t clean out.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Trowell as everywhere else we work.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Why it’s worth resealing in Trowell

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Take a look at our pricing.

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Air the room after use
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Prices and what affects them

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it

If you’re in Trowell and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Trowell: your questions answered

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Do you cover the whole of Nottinghamshire?

The entire UK, including all of Nottinghamshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What we cannot put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Hidden water damage
  • A flexing bath

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