Need bath resealing in Ditton Green?

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

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 often lifts.

How we handle bath resealing in Ditton Green

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for stained silicone and sealant that’s split or lifting, across kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.

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

How we price bath resealing

We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower

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.

Do you need bath resealing in Ditton Green?

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Black spots in the silicone

10 questions to ask before booking

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Resealing in Ditton Green: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Ditton Green: your questions answered

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

How long before I can shower?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you cover Ditton Green?

We do. Technicians travel to Ditton Green from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
