How we handle bath resealing in Dunmurry
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. If you’re dealing with sealant that’s split or lifting and an untidy old seal, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Dunmurry questions
How long does a reseal take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
How long does silicone take to cure?
You’ll get the curing time from us.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
If you manage property in Dunmurry, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
Prices and what affects them
Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Resealing in Dunmurry: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

The process
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a couple of hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
