How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Air the room after use

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

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

10 questions to ask before booking

What bath resealing costs

We do not charge extra for travel to East Wemyss. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
