How to compare quotes

Bath resealing in Ickwell without replacing anything

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. We’re frequently asked to fix stained silicone and silicone coming away from the tiles, in wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

What affects the price in Ickwell

Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs

If you’re in Ickwell and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

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

Shower trays

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

How it works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear the area around the damage

Advice

Ickwell: your questions answered

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.

Are there extra charges for Ickwell?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What does bath resealing cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Ickwell

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

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

See our prices page.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, it’s worth having it done properly.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ickwell use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
