Bath resealing in Urquhart

Bath resealing in Urquhart without replacing anything

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed using mould-resistant silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours, plus curing time. We regularly repair baths, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are black spots in the silicone and gaps in the seal.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Questions from Urquhart

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Does someone need to be in?

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

What areas do you cover?

All of Moray, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

How long does silicone take to cure?

You’ll get the curing time from us, normally around a day.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Why reseal now?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

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

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow about two hours for a bath. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Signs you need bath resealing in Urquhart

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

10 questions to ask before you book

What bath resealing costs

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Urquhart

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Hidden water damage

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Wet rooms
  • Baths
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
