What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Related advice

Common problems we fix in Goring-by-Sea

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • A messy previous reseal

Before you book anyone

  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How soon you can use it again

Our hiring checklist

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Read our pricing.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

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

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What bath resealing costs

Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Work for landlords and builders

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.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Goring-by-Sea questions

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across West Sussex.
