What affects the price in Daybrook

We don’t charge extra for travel to Daybrook. The price comes down to:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take around two hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Common questions in Daybrook

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Daybrook?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Usually after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

Can new silicone go over old?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

Common problems we fix in Daybrook

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Stained silicone
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Gaps in the seal
  • A messy previous reseal

What to look for in a quote

  • How long it needs to cure
  • How to look after the finish
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Air the room after use

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

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