Book bath resealing in White Stake

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

Bath resealing in White Stake without replacing anything

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s discoloured, yellow sealant and missing sealant behind the taps, we can help.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

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, with the joint fully dried first.

What we’re called out for in White Stake

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Common reasons people in White Stake contact us include:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Questions to ask before you book

  • What preparation is included
  • How your room will be protected
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How to care for the finish

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in White Stake

There is no charge for travel to White Stake. The price comes down to:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

FAQs for White Stake

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Lancashire.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Should I try a DIY kit 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, then guarantee it for a year.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Landlord and trade work in White Stake

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in White Stake use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
