What bath resealing costs

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Resealing in Crofton Park: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Crofton Park

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow about two hours for a bath.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Your questions about bath resealing in Crofton Park

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can new silicone go over old?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
