Bath resealing at your home in Wood Burcote

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. Our repair technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and common reasons people get in touch are missing sealant behind the taps and gaps in the seal.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Common problems we fix in Wood Burcote

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Damp near the bath
  • Unsealed corners

10 questions to ask before you book

Common questions in Wood Burcote

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Wood Burcote. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you come to Wood Burcote?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Wood Burcote and the rest of Northamptonshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Why reseal now?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

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

Materials we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Use the extractor fan

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

What bath resealing costs

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Wood Burcote, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a couple of hours.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

If you manage property in Wood Burcote, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

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