How we handle bath resealing in Eye

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 black spots in the silicone and gaps by the taps, in wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Eye and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

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

FAQs for Eye

Can you repair several things at once?

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

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Eye?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Do you work in Eye?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Eye. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Signs you need bath resealing in Eye

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • An untidy old seal

Before you book anyone

  • How your room will be protected
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Choosing a repair company

Landlords, agents and businesses in Eye

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Herefordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What bath resealing costs

There’s no charge for travel to Eye. The price comes down to:

  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For a price in Eye, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

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

Materials we work on in Eye

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

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. 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 photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
