Trusted bath resealing in Garscadden

How we price bath resealing

Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send photos for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your G13 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

How we handle bath resealing in Garscadden

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for stained silicone and an untidy old seal, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Is resealing worth it?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Work done at your home or business
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We leave the room as we found it

Take a look at our full price list.

What we cannot put right

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Your questions about bath resealing in Garscadden

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How much does bath resealing cost in Garscadden?

Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

We will give you the curing time, normally around a day.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a couple of hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Unsealed corners

Comparing quotes

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

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

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

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