Bath resealing in Wincobank

Bath resealing in Wincobank, done in place

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Typical jobs include a messy previous reseal and unsealed corners, across shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

When to call us in Wincobank

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • An untidy old seal
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Unsealed corners

Before you book anyone

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

10 questions to ask before you book

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Hollow or loose tiles

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

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

FAQs for Wincobank

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Do you cover the entire of Sheffield?

Everywhere in the UK, Wincobank included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do I have to be there?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Why reseal now?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

How it works

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 around two hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  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

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
