What affects the price in Bratton
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
About our bath resealing in Bratton
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. Our repair technicians work on wet rooms, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about black mould in the sealant and damp near the bath.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Your questions about bath resealing in Bratton
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
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 tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Signs you need bath resealing in Bratton
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- An untidy old seal
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Sealant that is split or lifting
Questions to ask before you book
- How your room will be protected
- What prep work is covered
- How the colour is matched
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Why it’s worth resealing in Bratton
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Bratton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

The process
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear the area around the damage
