Bath resealing for Weetwood homes

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Weetwood as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

How we handle bath resealing in Weetwood

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, plus curing time. We regularly repair wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are a messy previous reseal and mould you can’t clean out.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

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

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

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

Materials we work on in Weetwood

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

What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to around two hours, tidy-up included.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear the area around the damage

FAQs for Weetwood

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

How long does a reseal take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do you need bath resealing in Weetwood?

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Black spots in the silicone

Prices and what affects them

Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Weetwood. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
