Is resealing worth it?

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
How we price bath resealing
We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A photo taken from further back
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
