What bath resealing costs

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What we are called out for in An Tairbeart

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

People generally call us after spotting one of these:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Leaks at the edges
  • An untidy old seal
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

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

Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. 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.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • We leave the room as we found it

Read our prices page.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Questions from An Tairbeart

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

How long before I can shower?

Normally after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

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

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

What does bath resealing cost?

We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your G83 postcode.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Air the room after use
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes about two hours for a bath for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any 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. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
