Bath resealing for Uggeshall homes

Bath resealing at your home in Uggeshall

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s an untidy old seal and mould you can’t clean out, we can help.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Questions from Uggeshall

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do you cover the entire of Suffolk?

We cover the entire UK, including Uggeshall and the rest of Suffolk. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the area is dry

Advice

What affects the price in Uggeshall

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A photo taken from further back

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Uggeshall, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Uggeshall as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
