Bath resealing in Two Locks

About our bath resealing in Two Locks

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Common call-outs are for gaps in the seal and water getting behind the bath or tray, across baths, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, it’s worth having it done properly.

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.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  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
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Common questions in Two Locks

How long does silicone take to cure?

We will give you the curing time.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Are there extra charges for Two Locks?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

What we are called out for in Two Locks

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Common reasons people in Two Locks contact us include:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Stained silicone

10 questions to ask before you book

Honest limits

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

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

What we work on

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

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

What affects the price in Two Locks

You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Is resealing worth it?

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. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
