Bath resealing near Bankwood Gate

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Bankwood Gate. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take about two hours for a bath.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Hollow or loose tiles

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Why it’s worth resealing in Bankwood Gate

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Different materials, different repairs

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, with the joint fully dried first.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Bankwood Gate: your questions answered

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Air the room after use
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

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

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

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bankwood Gate as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
