Bath resealing for Exwick homes

What bath resealing costs

There is no area surcharge for Exwick. The price reflects:

  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Exwick. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Bath resealing in Exwick without replacing anything

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s damp near the bath and mould you can’t clean out, we can generally put it right.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Questions from Exwick

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

How long before I can shower?

Typically after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you come to Exwick?

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

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

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

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow about two hours for a bath. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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.

Common problems we fix in Exwick

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Customers typically contact us about:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • An untidy old seal
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Before booking anyone

  • How your room will be protected
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
