What affects the price in Deaf Hill
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Common questions in Deaf Hill
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How long does resealing take?
A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
What we’re called out for in Deaf Hill
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.
Common reasons people in Deaf Hill contact us are:
- An untidy old seal
- Gaps in the seal
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Before booking anyone
- How the colour is matched
- Whether the price covers travel
- Aftercare advice
- How soon you can use it again
How the visit works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to around two hours.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting 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’ll reply with a fixed quote.

When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Landlord and trade work in Deaf Hill
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Store bottles on a shelf
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
