Bath resealing for Bouldnor homes

How we price bath resealing

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

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Bath resealing at your home in Bouldnor

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include gaps by the taps and leaks at the edges, on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and baths.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

When to call us in Bouldnor

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

Before you book anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • When it can be used again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Bouldnor questions

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Honest limits

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

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  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

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
