10 questions to ask before you book

Bath resealing in Down Ampney without replacing anything

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Typical jobs include black spots in the silicone and silicone coming away from the tiles, on baths, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What bath resealing costs

We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes around two hours.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

Common questions in Down Ampney

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

How long before I can shower?

Normally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Why it’s worth resealing in Down Ampney

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
