Bath resealing in Dursley Cross, done in place

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Typical jobs include silicone smeared on tiles and missing sealant behind the taps, in wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Prices and what affects them

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material

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

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Most customers in Dursley Cross get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Common questions in Dursley Cross

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you cover Dursley Cross?

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

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How long does a reseal take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.

10 questions to ask before you book

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dursley Cross

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

If you manage property in Dursley Cross, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

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. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
