What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for about two hours for a bath. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

How we price bath resealing
We do not charge extra for travel to Barby Nortoft. The price comes down to:
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Barby Nortoft
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Open a window after bathing
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
What we’re called out for in Barby Nortoft
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.
Look out for any of the following:
- A messy previous reseal
- Stained silicone
- Gaps in the seal
- Damp near the bath
Questions to ask before you book
- How the colour is matched
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
FAQs for Barby Nortoft
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you cover Barby Nortoft?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Barby Nortoft from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How long will it take?
Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Is resealing worth it?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
