How we price bath resealing

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Natural light rather than flash

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

About our bath resealing in Aberchwiler

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Typical jobs include unsealed corners and old sealant that looks dirty, on basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a couple of hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with 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.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Common problems we fix in Aberchwiler

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Unsealed corners
  • Black spots in the silicone

10 questions to ask before you book

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 won’t last.

Common questions in Aberchwiler

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

We’ll give you the curing time, usually around a day.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Why it’s worth resealing in Aberchwiler

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. We do not add 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.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Air the room after use
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Keep the joints dry

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.

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

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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