What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

How to care for the repair

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

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

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

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Your questions about bath resealing in Wainfleet Bank

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Can landlords book you?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

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

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
