Is resealing worth it?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

See our full price list.

What we’re called out for in Barr

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

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • An untidy old seal

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether they match the colour on site

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What affects the price in Barr

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Barr. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Your questions about bath resealing in Barr

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

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.

Do you cover Barr?

We do. Technicians travel to Barr from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

The process

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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