Bath resealing near Horning

How we price bath resealing

You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know

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

Bath resealing in Horning without replacing anything

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We regularly repair baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and people most frequently call us about sealant that’s split or lifting and stained silicone.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Horning: your questions answered

Are you accredited?

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

Do I have to be there?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you cover Horning?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Horning and the rest of Norfolk. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Horning. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Movement in the bath or tray

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

Materials we work on in Horning

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

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

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

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

The process

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

Do you need bath resealing in Horning?

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Questions to ask before you book

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

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