Need bath resealing in Folly Town?

How we price bath resealing

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

  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

How to get a fixed price

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Bath resealing in Folly Town without replacing anything

We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops. Most jobs take a couple of hours, plus curing time. If you are dealing with water getting behind the bath or tray and discoloured, yellow sealant, we can help, whatever the material.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Common problems we fix in Folly Town

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Stained silicone
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • When it can be used again
  • Who will actually do the work

Choosing a repair company

Why reseal now?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why Folly Town clients choose us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Air the room after use
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Your questions about bath resealing in Folly Town

Does someone need to be in?

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

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.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
