Common questions in Bogend

How long does a reseal take?

Usually a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Will the price change on the day?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across East Ayrshire.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How much does bath resealing cost in Bogend?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you come to Bogend?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Bogend and the rest of East Ayrshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Why it’s worth resealing in Bogend

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What we can’t put right

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

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A flexing bath
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How we price bath resealing

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
