How we price bath resealing

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Signs you need bath resealing in Holly Brook

In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Stained silicone

What to look for in a quote

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What preparation is included
  • How soon you can use it again

10 questions to ask before booking

Landlord and trade work in Holly Brook

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.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Holly Brook use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Holly Brook questions

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

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

What does bath resealing cost?

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

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

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

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  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. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Resealing in Holly Brook: why it matters

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
