Bath resealing near West Moors

West Moors: your questions answered

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do I have to be there?

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

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Can you quote from pictures?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so West Moors is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Bath resealing in West Moors, done in place

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and people most frequently call us about water getting behind the bath or tray and black mould in the sealant.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

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

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

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.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What bath resealing costs

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Why it’s worth resealing in West Moors

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. 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.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

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

What we’re called out for in West Moors

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • An untidy old seal
  • Leaks at the edges

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
