FAQS

A single roll of leaksseal® contains 3.2 metres – enough to seal a standard 1700 x 700cm bath on all three sides. This is also sufficient to cater for the vast majority of shower trays.

Simple – because of its unique protruding lip, which means that, fitted correctly, leaksseal® will not leak! Plus, use leaksseal®, and you have no need for silicone, which is messy, tricky to apply, and discolours after a very short time. Silicone requires repeated reapplication and maintenance from a cosmetic perspective, and most importantly has a limited life-span.

As for upstand trays, unless your corners are true 90°, these cannot work efficiently. leakseal®, however, is flexible enough to cater for just this kind of issue.

Furthermore, our seal is highly flexible to cater for movement and is chemically formulated to resist mould growth. leaksseal® is perforated to allow a secure bond for tile cement – these are all features which put it in a different league to its competitors.

For the first time ever, no you don’t!

If you wish, you can add an external bead of silicone to the finished shower tray/bath or worktop for cosmetic purposes. However there is no technical reason to do this, provided leaksseal® is fitted according to instructions.

On baths and kitchen worktops for starters! In fact, our customers have used it on everything from fish tanks, to boats, to windows, to tiled floor/skirting or wall junctions – especially in wetrooms!

The protruding lip! “Simple yet brilliant”, said one of our customers. Our seal sets itself apart because of it. Think of it as double indemnity against leaks, and we are sure you’ll be persuaded.

Leaking showers/baths are almost always down to poorly applied or degraded silicone.

Silicone is notoriously difficult to apply. Once you’ve removed the old silicone and have a smooth surface to apply the new layer, you need to fill the bath. Then you need to ensure you apply a consistent, thin bead of silicone all the way around. Maintaining the same amount of pressure to obtain this consistency can be tricky.

Silicone degrades when it comes into contact with cosmetic and cleaning agents over time. Mould can appear leading to discolouration. It compromises the appearance of your overall bathroom but more seriously it can affect the reliability of the seal.

The lifespan of silicone is approximately two years, after which time it will need to be replaced. For high usage bathrooms, the lifespan can be as little as one year.
