Bath resealing near Gatton

What bath resealing costs

Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match

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

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

How we handle bath resealing in Gatton

A good reseal is all about preparation: 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. Whether it’s mould you can’t clean out and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can help, whatever the material.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Landlord and trade work in Gatton

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles

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

Materials we work on in Gatton

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

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Let steam out after showers

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

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

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a couple of hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
