FAQs for Basford
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
What does bath resealing cost?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
How long does a reseal take?
A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, so Basford is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What bath resealing costs
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For a price in Basford, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

- Damp near the bath
- Unsealed corners
- A messy previous reseal
- Old sealant that looks dirty
What your quote should include
- How long it needs to cure

How the visit works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take around two hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- 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.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Related advice
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Use the extractor fan
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Different materials, different repairs
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Hollow or loose tiles
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
